Here is a snippet of conversation from our lunch today at Cici’s Pizza after giving Adrianna a second helping of pasta.
Me: Here is some more pasta for you, Adrianna.
Adrianna: No, it’s not pasta. It’s just noodles.
Kind of reminds me of when I saw a little boy in Petsmart with a dachshund puppy. I told him how cute his dachshund was, and he told me in a knowing voice, “No, it’s a wiener dog.”
Once again, I stand corrected. Kind of.
I cant believe all the super cute things she says. I especially love how teddy bear was kicking Jesus and I still love ways to please God “make him tacos”
I think about adopting an international kid but then this compassion program seems like it could make such a big difference. I feel like if I just adopted a child from Uganda I would only be helping 1 person but if the child stays in their country then maybe he/she can break the cycle of poverty. Maybe he/she could become a doctor or a teacher. Anyway, my instinct is to want to take all those babies home with me but I think it could be better for them in the long run if they stayed and made life better for everyone there. I’m excited about the kid we’ve sponsored. I cant wait to tell Ethan about him and us write him letters. I’;d been thinking about getting a penpal for ethan anyway.
