Like Children

Kyle-"*GASP* KELLY SAID THE "S" WORD!!!"

Kelly-"What?!?! No I did not what are you talking about"

Kyle- "You said Shut-up"

Kierra-"LOL, I thought he meant the other "S" word, good thing he doesnt know that LOL"

Kyle- "YES I DO!!! It's Stupid!!!"

Innocence is such an amazing thing in young children, from the belief of Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy, to the belief that Tv shows are real. I know I have been blogging on things Kyle has said a lot lately, but I love his perspective on things. Life seems so easy through a 5 year olds eyes. When I hear Kyle talk, and how he thinks, I can see why Jesus said that we need to be like Children.

Family is important too

Last night, I'm talking to Kyle and I start jumping up and down
"KYLE KYLE ARE YOU EXCITED FOR SANTA TO COME WITH PRESENTS?!?!?!?"
Well he gets this very contemplative look on his face, places his hands on his hip and looks me straight in the eye and says
"Kelly, Christmas is NOT just about presents, Family is important too."

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Cute Kid! =P

How is it, that despite having a bad day there always that one person that can make you smile, That one person that can make you laugh, that one person that can make you feel like the world is right again? Well My little brother is that kind of a person. With out even realizing it. He walks into a room and your world becomes a brighter place.

Here are just a few conversations or one liners that have put a smile on my face recently =)

Kyle-Kelly wheres your ring? You make it look really beautiful <--- He is sooo going to be a little heart breaker with lines like that =P Kelly- Kyle, You're cute

Drawing near.

Well I suppose it is that time of year again. Lights are up, The 25 days of Christmas movies have started, stores are advertising there low low low year end christmas prices, aaah The sweet smell of another season. During this time we all get so busy we forget what Christmas really means. The true miracle, The first gift this season was meant for.

Let me get off subject for just a second, Well most of you know I have been home sick since sunday evening, and my mom and I went to the Urgent care and the diagnosed my sickness as H1N1, so needless to say I have spent alot of time in my room(i do that anyways but more than usual =D), and on one of the occasions I decided to sneak up and get some water, The tv was on, Kyle was watching the 25 Days of Christmas program on ABC Family. They were going of the story of Santa Clause and how he came to exist. I just rolled my eyes and moved on, until I heard "There were no preachers or judges so they were married before God." it went on as Mr. Clause and Mrs. Clause Prayed for each other, and Gave thanks to God. They then went even further as to say why He chose Christmas Day, a Holy day which Jesus was born, for Christmas. I was in utter shock. We are still in America right?? This is the same country that my friend went to court for standing for what he believed, and the same country which keeps arguing God has no place here, and yet this Show kept Gods name holy, and was open about what the characters believed.

If that's the case maybe there is hope for the world this season.

Advent =D =D

Tuesday I came home And I nearly jumped a hole through the floor... Why you may ask?? MY GRANDMA DROPPED OFF THE ADVENT CALENDER!!! She has given us one every year, and I shall never grow tired of it. Christmas just wouldn't be the same if I couldn't open those little windows everyday in December EEP, for the first time since last year I am VERY excited about Christmas lol.

THANKSGIVING!!!!

In English I have signed: Tonight I'm not sleeping because There is no school tomorrow because Thanksgiving is on Thursday. I like thanksgiving. There is a lot of food. I'm excited to see family. Do you like Thanksgiving?

This is how you would write what I said in ASL, this is called Glossing, its the written language of ASL =D:TONIGHT NO SLEEP I WHY TOMORROW NO SCHOOL WHY THURSDAY THANKSGIVING/ I LIKE THANKSGIVING/MUCH FOOD/ I EXCITED SEE FAMILY/ YOU LIKE THANKSGIVING HUH.

Hope to be like you

You know most people look at their parents, see their mistakes and say “I’m never going to be like them.” I look at my parents, and I hope I’m like them. As I write this I’m sitting on the stage awaiting the drama team to walk in, and I look in the back through the glass and I see my dad, and I know he’s not perfect He could tell you that himself, but I am so proud to call him my dad. There are probably over 100 people waiting to get food, Tuesday nights my dad has his food distribution, and I watch him as he talks to everyone, and gives each person his complete attention. He’s probably being pulled in a thousand different directions, and probably stressed to the max, but the smile has yet to leave his face, and he does each task with such diligence. He never asks for anything in return for all his hard work, he just does it. People look up to him and respect him because he treats people with respect regardless of there current situation or past, and I admire that about him. When ever I talk to people they always tell me "You're so lucky to have such a great dad." I just smile and tell them I know. Because I truly am. I am blessed far more than one could describe. and I hope one day People will look up at me with the same respect and admiration as they do when they look at my dad. =D Love you Dad!
