CHILDREN'S VIEWS ON ANGELS

 
Children's views on angels:
  
I only know the names of two angels: Hark and Harold.
 
      Gregory, 5


  
Everybody's got it all wrong.  Angels don't wear halos anymore.  I forget
 why,  but scientists are working on it.
     Olive, 9
  
It's not easy to become an angel! First, you die.  Then you go to heaven,
 then  there's still the flight training to go through. And then you got to
 agree to wear those angel clothes.
      Matthew, 9
  
Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something
 else.
      Mitchell, 7
  
My guardian angel helps me with math, but he's not much good for science.
      Henry, 8
  
Angels don't eat, but they drink milk from holy cows.
      Jack, 6
  
Angels talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. The basic
 message  is where you went wrong  before you got dead.
      Daniel, 9 


 When an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten.  And when
 he  lets out his breath, somewhere  there's a tornado.
      Regan, 10
  
Angels have a lot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an
 angel  comes in through your window and leaves money under your pillow.
 Then when it  gets cold, angels go north for the winter.
      Sara,6
  
Angels live in cloud houses made by God and his son, who's a very good
 carpenter.
      Jared , 8
  
All angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and boys didn't go for it.
      Antonia, 9
  
My angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on
 helping  me while she was still down here on earth.
      Katelyn, 9
  
Some of the angels are in charge of helping heal sick animals and pets.  And
 if  they don't make the animals get better, they help the kid get over it.
      Vicki, 8
  
What I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot
 arrows at them.
      Sarah,7

SOMEONE ELSES GRANDCHILD

A woman told this story to me the other day about her grand daughter.

She had given her grand daughter $10.00 and taken her to the dollar store to buy gifts for her family.

On the way home, the little girl started to cry because she had forgotten to buy the most Important gift of all, she said.

The grandmother asked her what gift she forget to buy? The little girl replied, big fuzzy, warm boots.

Big boots, the grandmother said as they turned around to go back to the dollar store!

Why in the world would you want to buy big boots and who are they for?

The little girl said; Grandma, every time I see Jesus in a picture, he has on sandals.

I want to get him big warm fuzzy boots for his birthday so his feet won't get cold. 

      It's mighty cold in December!

CHRISTMAS

The Grand children will all be here for Christmas!

They will arrive on the 27th and our Christmas will be the 30th.

I learned early that Christmas didn't have to be on the 25th of December.

Christmas is when everyone can be together.

All 7 Grandchildren will be home!

I'm looking forward to their excitement, paper flying and laughter.

THANKSGIVING

We will have 4 of our grand children coming here for Thanksgiving.

I wish they could all be here but they will all be home for Christmas.

We had such a good time on our family cruise in October. Everyone wants to do it again!

My focus is now on Thanksgiving dinner and getting ready.

I love the holidays even though they are a lot of work for me.

Thanksgiving is very special to me because "The Real " Santa comes to town at the end of the Thanksgiving parade in New York City. I still feel like a kid when I see Santa arrive.

The sight of Santa signals that it is time to get ready for Christmas!

I do have one gripe though.

What happened to his sleigh?

The big Swan just doesn't do it for me.

Now, it is time for Thanksgiving and I do give thanks for my wonderful family!

BIRTH TODAy HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIEANNA!

Just talked to my sister a little while ago. She is at the hospital with her daughter and her family.

Her daughter is having a baby today. Brieanna should be here before dinner time tonight.

Brieanna is a month early and the pregnancy has been a very difficult one. It has been a high risk pregnancy. 

Please say a prayer today for Beth as she delivers and for little  Brieanna who is barely 5 pounds.
