Oh! missed it again...
The Best Gift Ever
*** Start Here ***
Friendly Rules:1. Simply copy the inspirational story and in the end write down the lesson you have learned out from this. 2. Put your own blog name and link. Pass or tag this to your friends to inspire them. 3. Start copy from “Start here” until “End Copy” to your blog.
--- The Best Gift Ever ---
A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car.
Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said,"With all your money you give me a Bible?"And stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years passed and the young man was verysuccessful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart.
He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the stillnew Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. His father had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,"And if ye, being evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Heavenly father which is in heaven, give to those who ask Him?" As he read those words, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL.
How many times do we miss God's blessing because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Pass it on to others. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for...
PLS. SEND THIS TO AT LEAST FIVE PEOPLE SO AS TO LET THIS GREAT LESSON FLOW AROUND.
End Copy
Lesson I learned: (The best gift doesn't always come with the nice packages, the Bible itself is a gift)

using flour in the washing machine...?
Anyway, while I was loading the laundry in the washing machine, my son, Jacob asked if he could help me and I said "yes", then he started loading it with me. After we loaded the dirty clothes into the washing machine, he asked "Mommy where's the flour? Aren't we going to put flour in the washing machine? I laughed because I think it was funny when he calls the powdered laundry soap "flour". I said what flour? He pointed his finger at the cabinet where I put all the laundry stuff. He is really making laugh a lot lately. Oh! My happy helper...isn’t he sweet or what? I love him so much….

Salmonella outbreaks…in tomato!
Guys, ever heard about Salmonella tomato outbreaks? It already hit 16 states. Yes, the FDA and the CDC warned people who got sickedlast week after eating raw tomatoes served in the restaurant and also in the store shelves.It is now estimated that 167 people affected by it and are sicked and hospitalized. As we all know, Salmonella bacteria can cause diarrhea, nausea, fever and abdominal pain. FDA said not all tomatoes are affected by Salmonella, only those red tomatoes like: plum, roma and red round tomatoes. There are tomatoes that are not off limits; we can still enjoy eating tomatoes like: grape, cherry, tomato on the vine and homegrown tomato.The 16 states that were affected are: Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
Because of the outbreak, the FDA advices us not to eat raw tomatoes mentioned, unless they came from states which were not affected by the outbreaks such as: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, New York, Nebraska. North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, Belgium, Canada, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Israel, Netherlands and Puerto Rico. We need to be careful on where the tomatoes came from before we buy it and don’t forget to wash them before using it and that goes with the other fruits and vegetables we are eating/using, I think. Bummer, we love tomatoes in the house. Search for it at www.webmd.com .

tour of Patrick Henry's house...
We went to see/tour Patrick Henry's house in Scotchtown, Virginia. It was pretty neat seeing his house and some of the original furnitures he owns and the layout of the whole house and everything. Behind us was his house.
Remember his famous line during the revolution? "Give me liberty or give me death", that was Patrick Henry!
