Pictures of Chuck's birthday are coming soon, but until then here's an Abby story to keep you interested.

We were driving down the road the other day and Abby said, "Mama, who were those people in the garden?" Not having seen a garden, I said, "What people, Abby?" She said, "you know those people in that pretty garden." Thinking really hard and realizing that we had just come from church, I said, "Adam and Eve?"
"Yes, mama, those poeple. They were in the garden and they ate the yucky fruit."
"Yes, Abby, they did eat the yucky fruit."
"And God kicked them out because they ate the yucky fruit."
"Yes, he did. God kicked them out of the garden because they disobeyed God. God told them not to eat the fruit but they did anyway and so he punished them by kicking them out of the pretty garden"
Silence (about 10-15 seconds)
"But mommy, I don't think God should have put the yucky fruit in the garden. Then they wouldn't have eaten it."
And that, ladies and gentleman, sums up the entire human thought process in a nutshell. Yes, I did something wrong. Yes, I know it was wrong. Yes, I disobeyed. BUT, it was God's fault because he shouldn't have put that temptation in front of me....
