Cereal Art

They grabbed the camera and took off with it.  As so often is the case, I had no idea what they were doing, until it was too late.

It might not have been a big deal, if company wasn't to partake of the medium. They were, so I decided to not publish the photos until they'd had their fill of the boy-germs and gone home still healthy.

Uh, sorry.





*Sons brushing salty hands*


For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  ~Matthew 24:38-39

What Not to Wear

SugarPlum's Mama2 sent me some photos recently.  She's good about doing that.  Included this time was one of a beautifully enhanced Plum.  It seems the little Plum's daddy bought her some make-up.  Sweet.  I reckon it's never too early for a little girl to give attention to her grooming.  I reckon.  Ya think?


Bless her little pea-pickin' heart.  Doesn't she just look so pleased with herself.

Now, only on special occasions, Son2.  She's only 3 years old, so only let her wear her make-up on special occasions — like when you're taking her shopping or going out for dinner.


Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.  ~Psalm 29:2

New Year - Old Habits




And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.  ~Acts 17:30-31

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.  Romans 3:23

2009

Tagged to list 10 New Year's resolutions, I prefer to reflect upon those things I want the Lord to do in my life, as He molds me into the person He wants me to be.  [For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.  For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.  O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?  I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.  So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.  Romans 7]  I am weak, but He is strong.

Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Psalm 51:10

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:2

According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.  Amen.

Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
I Thessalonians 5:24
