I am PoOr...
One day a few weeks ago when I was tending Ashley she asked me how to spell "I am poor". I wrote it on a piece of paper not really knowing what she was going to do. She then went down in the basement and found a piece of styrofoam and a marker and proceeded to write in her cute little handwriting "I am poor". Then she asked me for a cup and a chair, and told me she was going to go outside and sit on my sidewalk and collect money. When I asked her why, she said "My dad needs money". (Chris sold his jeep recently, and I guess she overheard him say that gas was too expensive-he now owns a Jetta which gets super good gas mileage). I agreed to let her sit outside (yes, in her pajamas with boots on, but no coat). She finally got cold and came in. I put a dollar in her cup and she was happy. I guess she has seen homeless people with their signs and their cups, and she decided to give it a try. She might be a little mischievous at times, but she really has a heart of gold!! Thanks for making my day Ashley, and teaching me a lesson about truly loving thy neighbor as thyself...

Christmas "Miracle"!
About one month before Christmas, Darren spotted this coat at The Gap and said he wanted it for Christmas. They didn't have his size so I told him I would keep looking for it in other stores and online. I found it in his size a few weeks later online but decided to wait for a few days before ordering it because I had a 40% off coupon that wasn't usable yet. Well, of course it was sold out online and in all the Gap stores in Utah by then. A few days before Christmas I was at the Fashion Place Mall and decided to just take a peek in Gap to see if I could find the "Wool Zip-front black jacket". It was no where to be found in the coat section, but as I turned the corner to leave the store, there was a black coat in the middle of a rack of shirts, and...it was THE coat in his size and it was even on sale!
