Kim's World

Well summer is drawing to a close very quickly. We have had a lot of fun. The boys and I went to the Capitol with the Boldings. The girls stayed with Melissa and had fun playing with her kids. The girls and I went to Fairytale Town. Ashley and I met her Kindermusik class at the zoo, and enjoyed some one on one time. We have gone on a couple picnics and bike rides. Faith and Caleb came over and they all became Indians for a night. I wish I could show the video from that night, but I haven't figured that out yet. But summer isn't completely over, if fact the best part is yet to come! In preparation for our next adventure, I went yesterday morning and had my oil changed and my tires rotated. While waiting for my tires to be done and I went into a little kids boutique. On the wall were some signs. One of the signs said My prince did come, I call him "Daddy". I thought that was cute. But the best and truest was the one that said "Home is where my mom is". And tha...

Happy Birthday To You! There are so many wonderful words to describe you, Sis Young, that I would be here all day. You are an incredible example of what a Godly woman, wife and mother is. You live it and show us how it can be done. Nothing is too hard for you. You lead by example and show us that we are capable of handling whatever comes our way, with God's help of course. Thank you for loving my family and I, we are truly blessed to be under your leadership. I hope you have a fabulous birthday, and may all your wishes come true! (Like eating peanut butter and banana yogurt, with peanut butter topping and bananas at Tops!)

This is not my typical post, but I needed a good laugh. A friend sent me an email and it said "every woman should read" I thought I would share. Some of you may have seen these before. (disclaimer: these are only jokes, this doesn't happen in real life, husbands and wives always get along and are perfectly sweet to one another) MARRIAGE SEMINAR While attending a Marriage Seminar dealing with communication, Joe and his wife Ann listened to the instructor, 'It is essential that husbands and wives know each other's likes and dislikes.' He addressed the man, 'Can you name your wife's favorite flower?' Joe leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, 'It's Pillsbury, isn't it? __________________________________________________________________________ WIFE VS. HUSBAND A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede th...

There is a devotional book I read called Devotions for Evening and Morning. I know many people have this book. I love it! It seems to speak to me when I am going through a situation. Many times it is right on target for my need. I am going to post a portion of yesterday's devotion, it seemed to jump from the pages and I felt that there may be others that could benefit from it as well. Assyria was marching against Ethiopia, the people of which are described as tall and smooth. And as the armies advance, God makes no effort to arrest them; it seems as though they would be allowed to work their will. He is still watching them from His dwelling place, the sun still shines on them; but before the harvest, the whole proud army of Assyria is smitten as easily as when sprigs are cut off by the pruning hook of the husbandman. Is not this a marvelous conception of God - being still and watching? His stillness is not acquiescence. His silence is not consent. He is only bidding His time,...

The first picture is Ronnie when he is probably about one. I'm not sure, because the back of the picture doesn't say. It does say, however, that he got caught trying to get into the cupboard where the cookies were kept! This next picture is Ronnie when he was 7 years old. I think Levi and Myles both resemble him in this picture, Levi in looks but Myles in coloring.

My friend, Yvonne, told me it was my turn to post baby pics. OK, so here it goes, this one is me at 6 months old. When I can figure out what is going on with my pictures, I have two more I will post! ok, here is one of me at 5 with my brother, Like the Farrah Fawcett hair do? My mom just got back in church so therefore I still had bangs. Now here is one of me at ten, with a Gunny Sax dress on that my mom made! I think I wore this one every other Sunday night! The hair is the best though, can't you tell I am pentecostal?

George Carlin's Views on Aging Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions. 'How old are you?' 'I'm four and a half!' You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five! You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead. 'How old are you?' 'I'm gonna be 16!' You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . You become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony . YOU BECOME 21 YESSSS!!! But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're Just a sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed? You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put o...
