John decided that he needed to play the computer while I washed dishes so let me start this post over again.

I was volunteered to make something for lunch tomorrow at church. Of course the first thing that came to mind was lemon meringue pie, so thats what I made, two of them. Making lemon meringue pie is not the simplest of things to do because I had to separate the egg whites from the yolks with help from Timmy. The reason why that was hard is because if I get any yolk in the whites it doesn't whip up properly (if it whipped up at all) and the pie wouldn't taste the same and Timmy thought that eggs belonged all together, not separated. Another reason is Timmy has a runny nose and he loves meringue, he ate so much of it this afternoon that I hope he doesn't get sick. So he is over here sticking his slimy finger in the bowl trying to get just one more taste, and I'm scared he will get his finger in the beaters. So I tell him to go play and his idea of play is to stick measuring spoons into the egg yolks. I did finally get them done, and they look good.

I found out today that cleaning the church and reading Passport to Life City at the same time doesn't work, especially if you are vacuuming or cleaning toilets. After I got the cleaning done dad was testing stuff in the office with sound like he does every week. He had Elijah singing for him and I joined him (Elijah), he was rather surprised that I sang so well and he was telling dad how nice I sounded. I always fell awkward when people talk like that about me when I am around and I kept thinking, "ok, its not a big deal just shush".

Elijah bought fish snacks (same brand as those sardines) today. I told him not to open them in the van, so dad tells him he can open them a the Underwoods. So we get to the Underwoods and he opens them up and of course they stink, so he goes up to get Nate slurping on that stuff, and I can smell it. I was allowed inside but he had to stay out. Since the weather was warmer today the snow started melting a bit so that it was packing, and I took the opportunity to throw a couple snowballs at Elijah.

I want to die and let You give, Your life to me so I might live. And share the hope You gave to me, I want to share the love that set me free.
