Seriously!

In a memo from our principal: "If you are receiving unwanted pornographic pictures or texts on your cell phones from students take your phone immediately to administration."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of my students proudly brought a picture to me today of him at 8 years old and his older brother, 10 at the time. They are ecstatically standing on the hearth bearing AK47's; one's a semi-automatic and the other is an automatic. I promise.

Brandon and I are coaching Upward Basketball at our church. We've been blessed with 7 rambunctious 1st and 2nd grade boys. One, who's name is Pete, is going to be my heap of learning to be more like Job. He was roughly 3 inches from my face jumping straight up and down saying, "Look, I'm a kangaroo! Look, I'm a kangaroo! Look, I'm a kangaroo!" I was saying, "Pete, join the other boys who are waiting their turn to shoot the ball." "Look, I'm a kangaroo! Look, I'm a kangaroo! Look, I'm a kangaroo!" "Pete, kangaroo's don't play Upwards basketball. Go sit with your mother." "Look, I'm a basketball player! Look, I'm not a kangaroo!"

Hadlee at Brandon's birthday dinner the other night: "Happy Biwfday, Daddy! Mommy, Daddy's OWD!"
