Joanna and Ben the 2 troublemakers and the 2 cuties

Joanna is a BIG trouble maker at 6 months, I mean a BIG trouble maker. She is into paper and small toys (toys she can swallow like the wheels on a toy car - that have little pieces) and books and all kinds of other stuff. She can get into stuff because shes crawling.
But she is also cute with two dark blue eyes, a tiny nose and a beautiful little smile.
Ben is also a BIG trouble maker as well

1. Hes squeezes Joanna
2. He gets into our stuff
3. He gets into markers or pens and starts drawing on himself (think its funny to he does)
   
4. He does not listen to you and throws fits.

But hes cute in his own way with a funny little voice, his funny little face and his short sandy hair.
Well bye.

The candy world

This is what I think the candy world would be like:
You could sit in chairs made of cinnamon sticks at desks and tables made of hardened maple syrup while you read (and eat) books made of candied fruit. Sleep in a bed made of cheesecake with a pillow and blanket of sugared fruit. Living in a house made like a ginger bread house with doors made of star bursts, pillars made of licorice sticks, cotton candy clouds, windows of flat round lollipops and rock candy. Grass of shredded coconut colored green, trees of tootsie pop suckers.
Cars of candy bars and life savers, flowers out of carved suckers, a sun of a giant jawbreaker.
Side walks and roads of bumpy truffles, fresh water made out of blue gushers, towels made of
fruit roll-ups, hats made of carved marshmallows, walking sticks of peppermint sticks, powdered sugar snow, cup cake for flowers, tvs made of cake, bags and boxs made of fruit flavored yogurt, donuts are rafts and fun couches, pudding pools, carmel gates, toys made of taffy and milk shake ink, so what can I say except that we live in a candy world (and if I could I would have it that way, too.

Sunny days

On a sunny day you can go outside and ride your bike or go on a picnic.
On some days my brothers make a tent with blankets, pillows, chairs, bikes, the clothes line and clothes pins. Joanna is put outside in her exersaucer to play. My Dad will mow the front yard and then sweep up the side walk. We will have home made frozen juice or frozen yogurt on popsicle sticks. We take our school work outside and do it. Mom, Me and Daniel work in the garden. Then I will mow the back yard. We will grill hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill, after we grill them my Dad cooks baked beans over the grill. We all have fun on sunny days.

God your Father in heaven

Read: Philippians 4:4-7

Kataleenas father was away and would come back to celebrate Christmas with her. But

today is Christmas eve thought Kataleena father has always made it back before. What if
he does not this time? He promised he would.

The next day

Kataleena woke up and ran down stairs yelling with happyness for father was home!!

"Dad, I`m sorry. I thought you would not be here on time because it was Christmas eve and you were not here."
"That is okay Kataleena. But you have another Father who you can be sure sent His son
Jesus Christ to come and take you home to ."
"Who?"
"God your Father in heaven."

Do you know God as your Father in heaven?
If not talk to a Godly adult or church leader.

Memorize:
Philippians 4:4-7
"And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension,
will guard your heart and your mind in Jesus Christ."

Are you ready for Jesus?

Read: Revelations 22:12-14

Lillian smiled to herself as she thought of all the fun she was going have with Marianna, But
first she had to clean her room and Marianna was coming in 2 hours!
Finally Lillian was almost done all that was the desk. As she cleaned she saw a paper from her Sunday school teacher Mrs. Gibson. At the top it read ~Are you ready for Jesus?~.
Lillian thought - I better look at my life. Cause what if Jesus came today? I would not go to heaven. I`m gonna ask God to forgive my sins, come into my heart and help me.


Do you know Jesus as your Savior? If not go to a parent or church leader.
Do you know if your sins are forgiven? If not ask God to forgive your sins.


Memorize:
Revelations 22:7
"And behold, I am coming quickly.
Blessed is he who heeds the words
of the prophecy of this book."

Joanna or Baby Girl

Joanna is so cute. I mean who could be cuter? Joanna is a little princess. She was born on valentines day and is 5 mos old. She is the cutest baby ever. she is the youngest of seven children. We call her Joanna, Baby girl, Jo jo, Little girl, Little princess, Princess, Sweety pie and cutey. All of these and many more. We all love her. Especially Timothy who adores her and Benjamin who jumps to hold her (he is all over her all day long).

Joanna

A poem about my sister

Joyful baby girl
Oh such blue eyes
Always smiling
Never stays still
No setting her down
Am i ever going to let her go?

A Tea Party

On Wednesday July 1st 09 I went to a tea party. everyone brought a doll and wore tea clothes bringing along play clothes. when we got there we learned to make finger sandwiches that were cheese or peanut butter and jelly. There were other finger sandwiches and there were chocolate teddy grahams with peppermint dip. To drink there was lemon lift tea and pink lemonade. After we ate we went to another ladies house to see her huge doll collection. When we got back 2 of hostess`s helpers put on a puppet show. We did a treasure hunt to find things like a green fairy,
a key, 2 bugs, a doll chair and a tea set. Then we dressed up. Later we got in our real clothes and went home.
