I'm the type of girl... I roam around, around, around

While we were walking around Cancun it was very important that our kids stay nearby us at all times, so we were upset when Evangelina wandered off a little too far away from us for our comfort.  After enduring our quiet chastisement, she told me, "I'm a planet.  Planet means wandererer."

I guess I could use the help...

As told to me by Jadon:
J:  do you know what I got for your birthday? A cellphone that does your homework for you
E:  I want to do my own homework...
(then after thinking about it a little)... Can it do my Chungdahm [writing composition class]?

The difference between eternities

Tonight's Bible reading was 2 Chronicles 5 about the dedication of the first temple ("Solomon's"), including verse 13 when the temple singers sang of God, "He is good; his love endures forever."  Before we prayed for the night, Evangelina asked, "Daddy, if God's love is forever and yours & Mommy's love is forever, then what's the difference?"

I told her that God's love is infinitely deeper and higher and wider than ours, and therefore much more love than ours (as we have told her countless times in the past), but that both would go on forever.  We agreed it was like a quark of love going forever and a universe of love going forever at the same time, even though our quark of love for her is immense to us...
