Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansas at the opening session of their Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some people. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:
Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.
We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.
We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.
We have killed our unborn and called it choice.
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem.
We have abused power and called it politics.
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.
Amen!

I couldn't just let them sit there!
Some of the kids in my class left their pumpkins & we weren't allowed to keep them in the CDC because we have an inspector coming on Tuesday, so I had to take them home. I got a pumpkin carving kit from the Commissary & here's what I created:
I had a template for this one...
But this was all me!
& I have 3 more pumpkins that I want to carve this week. No ideas on what I should do next though. Leave me some suggestions ;)

A week isn't that long...
So I stayed away from the internet (even the computer) for a week, & it wasn't even that bad! I had more time to do things that really needed to be done (& that does not include ONLINE SHOPPING). I've been reading my bible, & as of right now I am in Matthew 25...still following the bible reading list from TRC :]
Anyways, work has been pretty hectic this week. We went on a field trip to the pumpkin patch on Thursday. Here are some pics from that:
Shelby & Kaitlyn picking a pumpkin.
Trinity.
Adrian & his tall dad.
Ayden.
Tyler & his mom. He didn't want to pet the chicken lol.
