Sticks and Stones

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me." Isn't that the way the old saying goes? Kids are under so much pressure today and I feel that it is our responsibility as parents to teach them that there are more positive ways to react to a negative situation. Take a look.

"When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them,

 "Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone..."

 -John 8:7

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; 

Only light can do that.

Hate cannot drive out hate; 

Only love can do that.

~Martin Luther King Jr.

What Friends Are For

Russ Gibb & Blackout the Fifth

We are pulling for you Blackout #5! Get well soon.
Love,
Jenny and Family

It's a little surprising to me just how comforting a companion can be

 To wake up to and to share a meal

Or someone to talk to when you need a good spiel

To scratch their back or to maybe scratch yours

And have a good play with when you're done with your chores

But when it gets quiet in the wee hours of the night

 knowing they're waiting

That just always seems right

A being to share your space with until the very end

Non-judging, just loving

Now that...is a friend
