Okay, I haven't updated in a few weeks, mostly because we haven't been overly exciting! So, I'm going to share some Deandra Stories with you. Deandra is our 3rd daughter sporting red hair and a personality to match it! She loves to dress up and get into things and has an imagination that will make you laugh. For example, the bug guy came over when our back yard was infested with ants (so badly that even the bug guy that's been doing this for 20 years was amazed and had never seen them so badly and gave us an AMAZING deal!), but Deandra didn't want him to kill her "friends". After discussing this with her (age 3 at the time) we finally decided that it was okay for him to kill the "bad ants that bite her feet" but he'll not kill the good ants which are her friends. The next night we have some friends over for dinner. I tried a new recipe of Parmesan Chicken. It was REALLY good, and pretty too! We had the spaghetti noodles in one bowl, and the sauce in another. The baked chicken was in the pan and there were hot rolls and salad and it was all set up nicely. Our friends, Adam and Ashley, came in and Deandra wanted to say the blessing on the food, so Tanner called on her. “Heavenly Father, Thank you for the snakes that Mama killed for our dinner tonight. And thank you for the red stuff with poison in it that we don’t die. Please bless it, ….” I think this was maybe the 2nd time Adam and Ashley were over for dinner and hadn’t been exposed to us too many times at this point. Nobody had a straight face. Boy what an imagination! Everybody ate the “snakes and poison” and nobody died! From time to time even now, when Deandra wants to help with dinner she asks “are we making snakes & poison tonight?” So if anybody wants to try out our Snakes and Poison let me know and I’ll post the recipe! Here’s a super fun picture of our Deandra!
