I have learned to be content whatever the cicumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plent or living in want. I can do everything thru HIM that gives me strength.

Cards and "Causes"
Kids are funny.....
An ...I am learning, that the OLDER the kids get- the FUNNIER they are.
Their PERSONALITIES are forming and they are HYSTERICAL people.
This week...Zeek got a card in the mail from some close family friends.
It had a card and inside was a $10 McDonald's gift card.
As you can imagine he was so excited....he ran right inside and put that bad-boy in his wallet.
That was it.
I never heard anything else about it.
THEN.....
Yesterday he saw Fran and Willy(the family friends who gave him the card).
I reminded him that he had gotten the card and that he should go THANK THEM.
He walked away to talk to them, and I figured I didn't need to follow.
Lesson learned.
I should have followed.....
JUST
FOR
A
GOOD
LAUGH!!!
Later on that day I was told that THIS is how the conversation went:
Zeek: Thank you for the McDonald's card I got for my Birthday.
Frannie: Your Welcome!!! Do you think you can use THAT?
Zeek: YES!!!! The KIDS are ALWAYS running around hungry.
So THANK YOU for helping with "the cause".
OMG!!!!
Could he be ANY more sweet OR more caring????
GOD LOVE HIM!!!!
He gets a card for his Birthday and he WANTS to share it. AMAZING!!!
THEN.....
He got a YOBE (frozen yogurt place) from my friends Nancy and Matt.
I JOKINGLY said, "Oh good, you can take me for YOGURT.!!!!"
Then as to call my bluff, he said...
"Ill take everyone for yogurt!"
And once again...
he made my heart swell.
It made me think....
"THIS KID IS GOING TO DO AMAZING THINGS ONE DAY...."
then
I
thought...
"Silly woman...He is doing AMAZING things TODAY!"
Sweet, Brilliant boy.
