Reaching Chinese People from Home

Do you wish you could be involved in sharing with people in China, but can’t travel there? If you understand and speak English well (as a native-English-speaker) here is a way you may be able to bless Chinese people without leaving your own home.

Ron Paul

In my research of the presidential candidates I have been having trouble finding one that I really want to support but the more I look at Ron Paul the more I want to support him. Take a look!

Giving to a person in need in a store line

I have heard many stories (and songs) about people standing in line at a store and seeing another person in obvious need and then helping that person. Those stories are touching and move me to want to help and look for situations like that were I could help. But AFAIK I have never been in such a situation. Have you ever been in a situation like that? Are they just rare in the areas where I go? Do I just not notice them? Do I just assume the person really isn't in need? Why do I hear those stories but never seem to get a chance to act out the good deed?

Joseph: School days

The other day I asked Anna what days she goes to school, and she didin't know so Joseph said: "I don't go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays." He doesn't go to school at all but Anna goes to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Joseph's amazing memory: Jessica's age

A few weeks ago Jessica Pillman came to our house to visit (I was at work). Jessica asked Anna how old she was and Anna said 4, and then Jessica asked Joseph how old he was, and he said, "2, and Anna is 4, and you are going to be 25!" Our best guess is that he heard her age when we read the Pillman's Christmas at least a week before that. The things they say sure surprise us sometimes!

New car

A few weeks ago we sold our 1996 Jaguar XJ6 Vanden Plas because we are expecting a 4th child and that car only seats 5 people. For our new car we chose a car that seats 9 people but isn't a truck, SUV, or bus. For anyone who doesn't know do you have any guesses?
