Isn't this just the sweetest picture. The little blond is my mother-in-law and that is her sister with her. I have the greatest mother-in-law. She did a great job raising my wonderful hubby!

If You Want to Be Somebody

Mark 4:23-25 "Anyone who is willing to hear should listen and understand! And be sure to pay attention to what you hear. The more you do this, the more you will understand--and even more, besides. To those who are open to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But to those who are not listening, even what they have will be taken away from them."

We had this verse as part of our Sunday School Lesson this morning. We were talking about the light and the lamp. And how one way to see this is that we are the lamp (the thing that holds the light) and Jesus is the light. And how the lamp is useless if it doesn't have a light. Anyway, these verses come right after. I love the part that I have in red. Sometimes we feel like we can't understand scripture (and I believe we'll never fully understand it all here on this earth) and we wonder how can be learn more and understand more. This scripture right here tells us. We need to pay attention when we hear the Word and that the more we do this the more we will understand. Seems pretty simple to me. I think this may be the whole clue to learning more and more of God. It reminds me of the little song in Sister Act II that "Sister Mary Clarence" teaches the kids. The words are "If you want to be somebody and you want to go somewhere, you better wake up and pay attention." Seems like pretty good advice to me.

I didn't do so well this week. I missed several days. But here's what I do have.

Monday - June 1st. This is my little farm on FarmTown which is a game I've become addicted to on FaceBook. I blogged about that a few days ago.

Wednesday - June 3 It was getting late and I was trying to find a picture to take. KLS was on the computer but ran around the corner and hid when I brought the camera out. She peeked around & this is what I got!!

Thursday - June 4 KJS watching TV with her Ohio State blanket and Tennessee hoodie.

Friday - June 5 The girls riding the log flume at Kings Island!

Saturday - June 6 Our public library - this is one of my most favorite places. I've been coming here since I was a little girl. I love the library!!

Since I missed a couple days, I thought I'd show an extra picture or two. This was Friday night at Kings Island. I love this picture of the moon.

KLS took these 2 pictures tonight while we were visiting my parents. We were inside and the kids were outside and this flew over. They came in and got my camera but didn't say why. This is why. Maybe I should just give her my camera because she really gets some good shots. If you double click these pictures, you can see the people in the gondola!

My daughter took the picture below that same night on the way home from Kings Island.

Like last week I've made this another one of those then and now photos for the Walk Down Memory Lane. Here are the girls in front of a fountain in EPCOT in June of 2004 and below are 2 pictures of the girls in front of a fountain in EPCOT in August of 2009.
