Mail From Dad

My Dad likes to share and sometimes bombards me with e-mail forwards. There are several that are not safe to share here…but I found this one quite delightful! And maybe an omen to my future?!?!



BEST POEM IN THE WORLD

I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven’s door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp–
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.

Bob, who I always thought
Was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, ‘What’s the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
How’d all these sinners get up here?
God must’ve made a mistake.

‘And why is everyone so quiet,
So somber - give me a clue.’
‘Hush, child,’ He said,
‘they’re all in shock.
No one thought they’d be seeing you.’

JUDGE NOT!!

Remember… Just going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.

Jamin' Weekend!

Dee and Loren went on their first trip together since Marshall was born leaving him behind without at least one parent for the FIRST time EVER! And they choose to leave him with me! WOW - risk takers! We had a great time! I picked Marshall up Friday night from Daycare, we went to the Bloomfield fish fry where we sat by his Godfather Cris (was a Godparent weekend) and slept all throught the night!

Then on Saturday we headed to Tyndall where Marshall got fitted for his Tux for the wedding and got to meet my family! since I talk about him all the time...it was about time they all got to meet. We had a jam session with Dad before moving on to Grandma Wagner's! We would have stopped at Grandma Tycz's too - but she was at State Wrestling all weekend. Grandma Wagner fed us lunch and then we went to Jon's where we took an afternoon nap! Kermit (Jon's Mom's dog) and Marshall did NOT get along...so Kermit spent the afternoon in the basement - but that would be our only hicup!

Sunday we went to the Daycare spagetti feed and then played at home until Dee and Loren got back!

The video above is from the Saturday morning Jam Session - which I think Dad enjoyed just as much as Marshall (if not more)!
