Zaiah

Okay- since my little brother is such a punk, I decided to go public with pictures of Zaiah. Not like the interested parties have not either been emailed pictures or seen him in person (or both), but because Brent made comments about having new goats without posting any proof. Here is proof of Isaiah William Roberts. According to Heather's Dr. (during an unspecified procedure done only on males), he will become a "formidable young man." This will definitely be repeated at an important moment causing much embarassment (his wedding rehearsal dinner:) However, by God's grace, I hope and pray that those very words do become true- that this young man will arise and shine, and may he reveal the Lord's glory by his very life. I love you little man- Welcome to the world!

Kid quotes from the election

A conversation that I had with Kate Jeffcoat, a 5-year old at Cherokee Bend...I also know her family very well.
Mrs. Batts: Kate, why do you look so sad?
Kate: My parents aren't going to have any money for my birthday now.
Mrs. Batts: What do you mean Kate? When's your birthday?
Kate: My birthday is November 19th and my parents aren't going to have any money to buy me a birthday present now that Obama has been elected!

Conversation overheard while walking through the 2nd grade hallway
Kid 1: I'm not voting for McCain, i'm voting for Obama.
Kid 2: Oh yeah, why?
Kid 1: McCain is going to send us to war and Obama is not.
Kid 2: What do you think we are in silly?

Quote from perhaps the spaciest kid in my class this year...
"So if Obama is an African-American, does that make him black too?"

Kids say the darndest things these days! That is just a sampling, I've definitely got more where that came from.
