The VeggieTales version of the book of Esther in the Bible is the best!
Their version of Jonah in the Bible is great too.
What I like about VeggieTales is their accurate interpretation of the message in those two books of the Bible. While there are multiple lessons to be gained from every Bible account…
I did not like growing up with a last name that no one can pronounce correctly on the first try. In a 99% white neighborhood, the Chinese surname Leung was strange. I was tired of having to explain it, spell it, correct it and still, the sound apparently does not exist in the English language.…
I am happy when
my husband and children are happy.
I see people remain faithful to God in the midst of difficult circumstances.
dots connect with amazing coincidences and everything turns out well.
someone shows interest in knowing more about Jesus.
I finish something by the deadline.
my client is appreciative of my hard work for him as an agent.
Last Friday, Audrey and I spent our annual mother-daughter overnighter at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine.
I’ve used Expedia.com to book hotels numerous times. This time I tried Priceline.com.
What price should I enter? I definitely wanted nothing less than four stars, their highest rating. The Marriot and Hyatt was being offered on Expedia.com for…
It is the resurrection of Christ that makes all the difference for us.
This is from Gary Bauer‘s End of the Day Report for today:
It Is Finished! As we approach the Easter holiday, this is a good time to reflect on exactly what it is that we as Christians are celebrating. And it’s not chocolate bunnies!
Another 49-cent movie yesterday – we watched Memoirs of a Geisha. I read the book a while back, and knew what to expect. I don’t like to be surprised in movies. I am scared of surprises and bad endings. The movie was nicely done. The cruel and sex parts of the books were not overplayed, which was good.
Just what I need
At the 98 cents or more store, Audrey spotted this ice cream scoop, apparently for gangsters. Look closely at the yellow starburst on the label. It says, “Bullet Proof Plastic.”
Just what I need! In case the ice cream gets attacked, the scoop will save the ice cream for safe consumption.…
Jump!
On Monday, I went with Audrey and her 2 friends, Nicolette and Emmeline, to Little Tokyo.
Our adventure began with taking the Metrolink from Walnut to downtown Union Station. How nice it was not to have to drive. The train was smooth, fast, and convenient.
Union Station is like an airport with signs and tunnels to various Gates. We caught the Dash that took us to within 2 blocks of Little Tokyo. The bus drivers were extremely courteous and helpful. I was very impressed.
Pictured here are the girls playing around this object d’art. We enjoy simple pleasures.
Have you seen Chicken Little, the Disney movie version?
There is a place in Walnut that rents DVDs for $1 a day. On Tuesdays, it’s only 49 cents! Mike rented Chicken Little for 49 cents.
It is a cute movie with some life lessons:
Don’t assume something can’t happen just because you think it can’t happen.
Amy’s Crazy Hair Day
On Saint Patrick’s Day, Amy’s school had Crazy Hair Day. I did her hair with little ponytails on one side of her head. I thought it looked cute!
A lot of the students sprayed their hair green. What fun it is to be a kid!
