So I thought this would be a great thing to pull up in about 10 years or so and share with the ones they like.... hehe

SOMEBODY'S RAISING THEIR CHILD RIGHT!

One Nation, 'Under God' .

One day a 6 year old girl was sitting in a classroom. The teacher was going to explain evolution to the children.

The teacher asked a little boy: Tommy do you see the tree outside?

TOMMY: Yes
TEACHER: Tommy, do you see the grass outside?

TOMMY: Yes.

TEACHER: Go outside and look up and see if you can see the sky.
TOMMY: Okay. (He returned a few minutes later). Yes, I saw the sky.

TEACHER: Did you see God up there?
TOMMY: No.

TEACHER: That's my point. We can't see God because he isn't there. Possibly he just doesn't exist.

A little girl spoke up and wanted to ask the boy some questions.

The teacher agreed and the little girl asked the boy:

LITTLE GIRL: TOMMY, do you see the tree outside?
TOMMY: Yes.

LITTLE GIRL: Tommy do you see the grass outside?
TOMMY: Yessssss!

LITTLE GIRL: Did you see the sky?
TOMMY: Yessssss!

LITTLE GIRL: Tommy, do you see the teacher?
TOMMY: Yes

LITTLE GIRL: Do you see her brain?
TOMMY: No

LITTLE GIRL: Then according to what we were taught today in school, she possibly may not even have one!

visited with Lawrence and Sharon Robinson at lunch yesterday..

Got to see some longtime dear friends at lunch yesterday... Lawrence and Sharon Robinson... they are doing great, have a new mini, Morgan is doing great overseas and is fine tuning his artistic skills in furniture making and design... Lawrence said he sent him a computer in hopes of keeping up.. but Morgan does not like them and will not use them.. now there is a change... haha... Michael is doing great, and L. has a new truck too.. lots of changes... It was a blessing to see them...

and then... last evening ... I was brought up to date on Greg Pearce's little boy... he has a blood disorder that can lead to bleeding... there are very few people with this rare blood problem and to stop the bleeding, for instance about a day and half ago, he stubbed his big toe playing... bear foot in the yard... as most kiddos are these days.. and it swelled up with internal bleeding and they took him to the doctor and was given one treatment of "factor", to make blood thicker and stop bleeding Monday night... Tuesday Morning Kim took him with her to her work in Ponca and it was a bit worse so she took him to PC emergency room where they gave him another unit of factor... and it still was swelling.. so she took him to Tulsa.. most places don't keep the "factor" on hand... to children's hospital there... and they gave him two 2 units more.. this is a total cost of 800 dollars a unit so 3200 dollars total just for the special shots of factor... and they came in last evening to Perkins where they live...

and we think we have problems... imagine a two/three year old boy not being able to be a boy!!

so anyho... life goes on..

have a great day, and stay cool!! I hear there are several of you all on vacation, etc... some heading to Las Vegas, some to southern OK.... others well who knows where.. haha,...

have a great time! See you when you all get back..

From Heather... Think... before you answer.... and remember, someone may be wanting the short version of a long story.. haha..

The Lone Ranger and Tonto went camping in the desert.
After they got their tent all set up, both men settled in and fell asleep.
Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says,Kemo Sabe, look towards sky; what you see?
The Lone Ranger replies, I see millions of stars. What that tell you? Asked Tonto.
The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says, Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies.
Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning.
Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
Theologically, the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.
What does it tell you, Tonto?
You dumber than buffalo. Someone stole tent.

As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in schools.

Then we visited the graves of my grandparents and mom's little brother Harry...in the back of the main stone.



















Mom is in the background looking at her brother Calvin's grave. It is still marked by the simple standard new grave marker at this writing.

Kingfisher Cemetery

















Went with Mom to the Snethen Family Reunion in Kingfisher Sunday in 106 degree heat... We started out at the Kingfisher Cemetery and I was blown away at what they had built there for the Veterans of all services and all wars. It was a very humbling experience to say the least.
