Time For The Next Project

Hey, Y’all!

I trust that you all are having a great Wednesday—I know I am.

Y’all probably took a look at the title of today’s blog, then took a look at my featured photo, and said to yourselves: “The next project must have something to do with Candi, Nessa, Trisha, and Becky.” Well, I don’t need to tell y’all this, but you’re absolutely right! The next project is called “Operation: Summertime Slumber Party,” and it’s taking place at Gramma Jewel’s place. I’ve already spoken to my girls, and then we confirmed it with Gramma Jewel. Now, check this out: Why is Gramma Jewel more excited about the slumber party than we are? She told me that she’s gonna go grocery shopping “like, right now,” and she’s gonna treat us to a great big ol’ breakfast.

Gramma Jewel is so cute—she’s always going above and beyond to see that her family and friends are happy and well taken care of. I think I should point out, however, that our Summertime Slumber Party is not until August 4… actually, it’s a whole week of chillin’ with Gramma Jewel and my girls. I do want to spend one whole week with them before I head back to Rust—and yes, I’m gonna bring my camcorder with me!

And speaking of my camcorder, I have an update as it relates to my home movie project: As you know, I came up with an idea to have opening credits, and I used a couple of pictures from some of my mom’s photo albums. If you recall, I also mentioned that I found a picture of Grampa Clark and his Sapp Elementary Family. Well, just as I was about to start recording footage for my opening credits, an idea struck me to leave the Sapp picture out and use it to make a dedication to my Grampa Clark, so that’s exactly what I did!

I know—I’m so full of ideas, but then again, a teacher has to be creative!

Well, that’s gonna do it for me today. I made a promise to myself that I would give my home movie project a rest, just to work some more on my Sunday School lesson for the Cradle Roll class; I’ll do that later on this afternoon. I finally decided that I’m gonna teach them about how it’s okay to be different, and there’s no better lesson than Romans 12:1-2. I’m sure there are other scriptures that talk about being different, but when I read what Paul said in Romans 12:1-2, I was like, “Whoa!” Paul basically says that we as Christians ought not allow the world to define us, but we are to be set apart from the world. I believe there’s another scripture that makes it perfectly clear: We are in the world, but not of the world.

I keep tryin’ to tell y’all that I reads my Bible, Baby… Hahahaha!

Okay, y’all—I’ll holla at y’all tomorrow. Take care, and Peace Out!

Hugs & Kisses
