What kind of Instrument is this?
88 keys stand in a row,
Black and white are they.
One thing that's great to know,
Is each one sounds in a quite different way.
True, all make music together,
When played correctly and in proper order.
But one thing is that they work as a team,
Not separate, but united, they sound as a dream.
At one end, a key is high.
Down yonder, another is low.
When put with each other,
Well, music's made & I think you know why.
Don't get stressed as to what it is
I'm sure you really know.
This ain't exactly a very hard quiz,
You just gotta keep guessing to and fro?

Another Blog?
Okay, so I got another blog. Big deal, right?
Well you can check it out HERE. Tell me if you like it. Or not. I don't really care either way because I'm not up-tight about your feelings or thoughts against me. Anyway, just thought I'd let ya all know in case you find out ten years later and get all upset about me for NOT telling you.
I guess that's it then. Bye now! Have a blessed day.

R.C. Sproul
"When we are aware of the presence of God, we become most aware of ourselves as creatures. When we meet the Absolute, we know immediately that we are not absolute. When we meet the Infinite, we become acutely conscious that we are finite. When we meet the Eternal, we know we are temporal. To meet God is a powerful study in contrasts."

Absolute Goodness = God
"...We know that if there does exist an absolute goodness it must hate most of what we do. This is the terrible fix we are in. If the universe is not governed by an absolute goodness, then all our efforts are in the long run hopeless. But if it is, then we are making ourselves enemies to that goodness everyday, and are not in the least likely to do any better tomorrow, and so our case is hopeless again. We cannot do without it and we cannot do with it. God is the only comfort, He is also the supreme terror: the thing we most need and the thing we most want to hide from. He is our only possible ally, and we have made ourselves His enemies. Some people talk as if meeting the gaze of absolute goodness would be fun. They need to think again. They are still only playing with religion. Goodness is either the great safety or the great danger - according to the way you react to it. And we have reacted the wrong way."

Visitors from Arizona!
Yes, my great uncle John and aunt Ginger are here from Phoenix, Arizona. It is pretty cool. We have already got to play tennis with them, sing for them, and have them at our church. They are both so much fun and we thank God for them.
One thing they do well is smile really big and bring lots of joy wherever they go. People are constantly around them and you just can't seem to not like them. Anyway, enough said. I hope some of you can meet them soon. Alright, bye now.

Picking Blackberries (A lot of 'em!)
8 members of our family went out today and picked blackberries. It was fun and, obviously, quite hot too. We picked a lot and should be having them over the next few days. I took some pictures for any who would wonder how the trip went.
I took this picture and that's why I'm not in it.
My Dad took this picture because I am in here.The outcome: More Blackberries! Hurrah!
It was a bright and sunny day.Jonathan decided to keep lots of blackberries to himself.
He wandered off and hit lots of 'em! Here he is, reaping the rewards.
He might of ate a few...
We had our little car and the kids kinda just jumbled all together.

Here is a blog on chess
I recently started this blog on chess. We should get some great ideas. Anyone who is struggling to win a game of chess may hopefully find tips and tricks on it. So come check it out and I'll see you at the board (or somewhere else). Click Here for blog.
It's actually also a blog for some of my cousins to post on as well. We can each post stuff about chess and learn a lot. It should be fun. Bye for now. "To infinity and beyond!"

Another Voice Lesson...
We had another voice lesson this week. That is, many of my cousins came over and we all found some new songs to work on from our teacher, Mrs. Wulff. She is very good when it comes to singing matters. Anyway, it was great and I hope we can all improve so that we won't sound like old goats when singing something like "Happy Birthday."
But, yeah, it's fun.
