Is There a Normal?????

In America we always use the phrase "Oh i just want to be normal" but as i was thinking about it i realized there isnt really a normal. I mean how do we define normal and what is normal. I think that normal is a lie and nothing more. I looked what the definition of normal is in the dictionary and this what it said: "conforming to the standard or the common type; usual; not abnormal; regular; natural."

but the thing is i dont think that there is a common type because no one on this earth is common because they are different in their own ways . So i dont believe in normal at all because normal is a lie. People are different in so many things. If a person likes to play sports a lot and someone tells them that they are not normal because they play music a lot is that really true. I dont think so because both are good things and that situation kinda eliminates the idea of being normal. I just dont think there is such a thing because i think its a word that we have in our launguage but its really not true and i think that we shouldnt have that word in the dictionary at all. I believe that everyone is different in their own way and that we all are a little bit crazy and weird in our own way. But that is not something to be ashamed of at all. I think that its good to be different creates an amazing diversity.

My last thought: THERE IS NO NORMAL!!!!!!

Time At Houston




Usually words tell a story but for me pictures tell it better because there is no way i can describe how cute these kids are...


Sarah and charlotte down the slide....

The last couple days i had the chance to have a lot of fun with these kids whether it was going down slides or just having fun by playing. Kids are a lot of fun and that is a fact....

What is My Purpose In Life???

The biggest question of life is what is my purpose for being here on earth!! One that probably many cant answer for me. One that i look for everyday. How do you find the answer to something like this??? The answer is simple trust Jesus! Trust Jesus that He knows your purpose in this life. Be guided by Jesus as he shows you the path that is only meant for you.... Each of us has a different path that God designs for us and its the way things are. Even if you wana change that you cant because you will be just fighting yourself.

We should not fight when we as humans who are sinful try to say to God that we are right and God is wrong because its just doesnt work that way. From experience of my own it doesnt work to fight God because you will just feel so frustrated afterwards and its not worth it at all.

Dont try to figure out what your purpose in life is just follow God and at the right time he will reveal the purpose of your life.

What If Monday June 30, 2008 and Tuesday July 1, 2008

If you had a child and he makes a wonderful noise would you want to share it??? Well this child is not my child but when he was making the noise that a car would make vroom, vroom i just recorded it because it made me smile that out of a small little toy he can still have the time to have some fun. I love seeing kids grow even though most the kids i watch are not my own but still its fun to see that. Take a look at this video that just made me smile....

Monday was a regular day where nothing bizar happened but still during that day i captured Nathan making the car sound... Made me happy that Nathan was happy. Time goes by fast. The same things were going on Tuesday. Both days were beautiful where i watched kids play and watched them grow. I hanged out with Jake and Hannah and that was fun to. I remember my stay in Indiana even though my journey here is almost up. I also remember the gift God gave me to care about little ones and have the patience to comfort them when they are crying.

Sunday June 29, 2008

Some things never change like when to wake up, like having different meals during the day or playing with kids. All are good things to do. But some of those things can be really boring to read about so im going to write about the very interesting things about the day like what happened during the day that was funny or interesting or just very buzzar or a story that was just good to tell. My cousin Laurel once said that if something funny happens we usually write it down kinda like a family tradition. Making sure its in context with whats happening in the day.


This is the story of sunday morning. Sunday morning is the day we worship Jesus although i have to say it would be great if it was every day but Sunday is dedicated where we worship Jesus with other believers and its amazing beyond any comparison to worship Jesus with others. Can't get any others any than that can it. This sunday worship was different.....And it all begins with a car ride. Where we needed to fit 5 people in the car plus two big instruments. The harp itself is even bigger than me


so we had to put the harp and the cello in the car along with two kids, me and Hannah and Jake. How do you fit all that in the car????? Well we put the instruments in the back seat and put Nathan in the back seat without his car seat. Then Jake was driving the car. Hannah sat in the middle while i sat in the passenger seat while holding Paul in my arms once again no car seat or anything but we werent going that far so i guess it was okay. A little adventure on the way to church. We began by singing the hallelujah chrorus.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! :
For the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The kingdom of this world
Is become the kingdom of our Lord,
And of His Christ, and of His Christ;
And He shall reign for ever and ever,
For ever and ever, forever and ever,
King of kings, and Lord of lords,
King of kings, and Lord of lords,
And Lord of lords,
And He shall reign,
And He shall reign forever and ever,
King of kings, forever and ever,
And Lord of lords,
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
And He shall reign forever and ever,
King of kings! and Lord of lords!
And He shall reign forever and ever,
King of kings! and Lord of lords!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

It was beautiful! And i wish i could have recorded a part of the congregation but holding a baby who was sleeping makes it really hard! What was interesting is that Jake and Hannah played the Blackbird which is a song by the Beatles but it was beautiful any way. I love when Jake and Hannah play together its just so beautiful. I would have recorded it again but I had to hold Nathan when Hannah and Jake went on stage to play because other wise he would have went up there any way. I took him outside for a little bit.



Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your lifeYou were only waiting for this moment to arise

Black bird singing in the dead of night

Take these sunken eyes and learn to see

all your life

you were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly

Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

All your life

You were only waiting for this moment to arise,oh

You were only waiting for this moment to arise, oh

You were only waiting for this moment to arise



I got a chance to record Jake and Hannah practise although the lighting may say is very poor. It was a happy but a great church servise. Thats the story that was exciting and amazing in its own way everything else was the way it should be playing and all that.
