My sweetie and me

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had our pictures done for our new church directory. I love the one of the children. Time sure flies . . . .they are becoming so grown.

Hope everyone has a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Honesty Pays Off!

Wow, what a shopping experience the boys and I had today. We are having pictures done tomorrow for our church directory so I needed to buy the boys a long sleeved black shirt for our picture. So we went to Beall's and found just what we needed (really cheap too!). While we were there, Nicholas happened upon a $100 bill on the floor and went to Johnathan and said, "Look what I found!" Johnathan, took it from Nicholas and said "Nick, where did you get this? We have to give it back!" Johnathan then looked up and saw a young man pacing nervously around the store so Johnathan asked him if he had lost some money and he said yes! So Johnathan gave him the $100 and the guy asked where he found it so Nick took him to the rack of dresses where he found it and the man was happy to find the other $600 under the rack that his wife or girlfriend had lost while browsing for dresses! I had no idea all of this had happened so when this man I did not know came up and handed Johnathan a $100 bill and told him to keep it I was like "WHAT??" After I found out what had happened I told the man that the boys could not accept this money, and he said he wanted them to have it because they could have kept it all but was honest and returned the money. I told him that we wouldn't expect the boys to keep money that didn't belong to them that we teach them to be honest. He said "well honestly deserves reward so I want them to keep it". The guy walked away and we stood there dumb founded. Although Nicholas had a big 'ol smile on his face! I stlil can't believe it happened!
