Found a scrap piece of paper laying around today on which David had written two of Isaac's original compositions a few weeks ago - at Isaac's request.
"Jesus is like a machine. He takes away all my sin and He helps me throw them in the deepest ocean."
"Jesus, please turn on the switch. Please turn on the switch and take away all my sins. Please turn on your other switch, your number two switch and help me give away all my sins so I can go to heaven."
Isaac still has a love for machines. And Jesus. =)

Just a few Kid Quotes....
Yesterday Jadelyn was cuddling/doing "kanastics" (gymnastics) with me. All the sudden she busted out with something like, "I'm smelling your arms. Yuck. I like it!!!!!" Nice. Wasn't too long ago she was telling David that he stinks and she likes smelling me better. Or something. Crazy Lynnie.
Cut the boys' hair yesterday. Isaac's wasn't really too long, but David's was looking bad, and I cut 'em at the same time...you know, to cut down on repeating the haircut mess more than I have to. Was mentioning to Isaac how his hair didn't look too long, but Daddy's did. "Maybe because he's going bald some", Isaac surmised. (Something like that). It's crazy true, but since there's so little hair left on top, for some reason it looks REALLY BAD when the sides grow out so much. Bless David's sweet balding self.
Okay, need to go paint. Someday this remodel will end...just not sure WHEN.

Scorpions...
Was reading a book about scorpions to the kids today. We have to get educated on things like that, you know...for safety sake. Near the very beginning I gave a little run down on if they see a scorpion they get away from it and tell me. So, as I'm reading, Jadelyn keeps interrupting with suggestions of what she can do with a scorpion. "I can catch one in a jar and bring it in the house." "No. You need to stay away from the scorpions". "I can chase it and scare it away...." "No, you need to stay away from the scorpions." "I will just touch it with my finger to see how hard it is". "No, you need to stay away from scorpions". "I will wear a glove and make sure it is dead before I touch it." "No, scorpions sleep during the day and you might think it's dead and it's just sleeping. You need to stay away from scorpions". Finally, I had to tell her that if something happens to her, I've done my due diligence trying to save her life. =P One of the scorpions that can kill a person resides in our area, but the book assures us that nobody in the U.S. has died from a scorpion sting in 30 years (with the help of the antivenom made out of goat's blood and scorpion venom). I'm not sure how much reassurance that really gives me since Jadelyn is determined to check those nasty things out. Tonight at supper she was again talking about how she can catch one in a jar and bring it inside and poke holes in the lid so it can breathe, but she'd wait 'til she was a grown-up to do it. Ruby then piped in, "You can't bring it in the house, 'cause you want to live with Mom when you're a grown-up". And Jadelyn was silent. Miraculous...why didn't I think of that?!?!?!?
