What a weekend! It was very busy, taking care of 4-H and fair projects, with little rest. The weekend is supposed to be for rest, but I think I feel rested just from the knowledge that it is over with. The boys have entered 21 exhibits at the fair this week! The prize money is what gets them to do it. ___________________________ #2 certainly keeps his guardian angels busy. He has always been a risk taker, climber, face to the wind type of person. Yesterday he wanted to play in the ditch because he saw a couple young frogs. He was covered in mud from head to toe, and he smelled like a dead fish. He had to have 2 showers to get clean- the one he thought that worked and then the one that Mom showed him the dirt. On Saturday he was climbing in the tree in the front yard. He showed me how he had made a tight rope and was trying to walk on it. Later, unknown to me, he nearly hanged himself. I found out later from my husband that he found him with the rope tied around his waist and his neck, hanging from the tree. I guess #1 was trying to help him back into the tree. Dad thinks he fell out; he wasn't trying to hang himself at least. ___________________________ Church was interesting yesterday. The communion thoughts were on cannibalism and what the early Romans thought of christians. The idea that we are eating and drinking Christ's flesh and blood is quite solemn. To take into us the very life of God and become like Him- wow. Hubby is also becoming a better preacher. He has more of a passion about him now.
