Hey guys! Merry Christmas! Guess what? Remember Fox, my cute baby golden retriever (who's not so small anymore?) Well, I forgot to tell you about my other animals, three cats, in fact. The first is Snowball, our cross-eyed Siamese with a good ol' dash of Siamaditude. She's as ornery as they come, but also super sweet, with a dash of fierce. Peanut is our second cat, a small, simple-minded kitty with a sweet streak...and not much else, except for a whole lot of cuteness and a squeaky meow. Last, but not least, is our brand-new addition to our family, Tangerine. He's a white/orange cat with slightly oval eyes, a nasal purr and a flat, striped tail. He's so sweet and very, very cute. Anyway, I already love this cat. We adopted him from an animal shelter, and I can't help but wonder what this little guy's been through. I love that he's ours. It made me think about our adoption, though. God adopted us too, in our helpless state, but we didn't have near as much street cred as Tangerine. After all, cat's aren't really bad, are they? They can be clumsy, or goofy, or sometimes a little vindictive, but overall cat's aren't bad, especially not Tangerine. So think about this gift: God adopted us when He knew everything about us, all of our sin. Unlike Tangerine, we weren't just stuck, not looking for Him. We were running in the opposite direction. So remember how much God loves you that He calls you His own and loves you so much that He would die for you. If that's not a reason to celebrate, what is? Merry Christmas!
Hi, Page Turner here! Okay, so if the start of this high school year as been anything, it has not been boring due to lack of books to read. Here's a list of my favorite books, (in no particular order) that I've read since August! 1. "Bud, Not Buddy." This is book filled with humor and pathos and narrated by a ten-year old street-savvy kid in the Great Depression. After loosing his mom when he was six, he is moved to an orphanage. After a series of events, he finds himself alone on the road. But Bud has a secret--he thinks he knows who is father is, and he sets out to find him. This heart-warming story shows the heart of young boy, the mind of a hardened man, and the importance of family. 8/10! 2. "City of Ember Trilogy" Okay, so actually it's a quartet, but I've never liked the "Prophet of Yunwood" anyway. This series follows the events after a devastating world war that caused fire, starvation, and disease; a war that nearly wiped...
