This is true! I expected Daniel to come bounding toward me when we first met and he just quietly stepped up and took my hand to say hello in a quiet, shy voice.

We wound up waiting in the back of a police car until the homeowners could come and identify us... lol!!!

Oh, and then also once I was the victim of a peeping tom... I'll just leave it at that!

1.) When I was 14 a friend and I were arrested for riding our dirt bikes in a public park, lol.
2.) I had to go to court, and had two points on my driver's license two years before I even GOT them.
3.) I got drunk with Margie's brothers and passed out in her apartment when she was out of town - I was 16.
4.) I dropped out of school in 11th grade, and went back a year later to a Christian School and graduated with honors.
5.) I was Vice President of my senior class.

That's enough for now, lol.

It's funny how it matters HOW you were taught too - - someone in front of you showing you how or someone holding you in their lap. I always held my kids and showed them - their dad was in front of them. When he'd start - - they'd say that's not how mommy does it! LOL!

Years later when we were pastoring, remembering this incident, I wrote an email to my old pastor and laughed and said I wonder what he thought about it that day. I didn't get a response.

Funny/Tragic story; when our church first put its alarm system in, it was in response to a series of break-ins we had been having. We had church member who I happened to have a very close relationship with

put the alarm system in. Later it was discovered that this person was the same one who had breaking in...

I know! My step-daughter taught my daughter, and I never could figure out what she was doing when she tied her shoes!!
