Madyson's party

2010-08-25T19:03:00.000-07:00

My friend just had a birthday party her name is Madyson.
She had a swimming party and we ate pizza and cupcake/cake.
We played sleepover games and some of the girls spent the night.
we watched movies and more.
The next morning we were watching a movie and then we ate.
We did nails and toe nails.
It was alot of fun but the best part was that she was sweet enough to give all her presents up to get money from everybody to give to our family for our adoption.
How sweet is that?
It was so much fun.

Adoption

2010-06-21T18:29:00.000-07:00

Okay so a lot of yall know about are baby that we are getting from Ethiopia.
So I can't wait till we get her/him but it will be a while.
My mom is so happy to get to go down there to see all the little baby's.
But mostly to get our baby.
People are going to stare when they see eight kids walking in the mall and one is Ethiopian (but they already stare with seven).
But I love having a lot of brothers and sisters. I mean it would get boring being like an only child.
I just can't wait.

And just remember that my mom is NOT pregnant!

Love Maggie

How Blessed We Are!!!!!!

2010-05-27T20:58:00.000-07:00

Have you ever thought about how blessed we are?
God could have made us one of those kids sitting on the ground and walking 2 miles to get dirty water to drink.
With a house made out of sticks.
And we could have only one dime.
But that is not how God planned it.
While I was at the beach little kids and grown ups were across the world with no beach nothing but dirt and dirty water.
We could have spent that money on kids but no we did not think of those little kids we were too busy thinking of ourselves.
Like that one little thing that we just "have" to have.
We need to think of others before us.
I"m so excited because next year we will be taking my little African sister down to the beach.

He's Amazing

2010-05-13T07:51:00.000-07:00

Have you ever thought about how amazing Jesus is who could split the sea's who could heal the sick and who could rise from the dead. He is amazing he is perfect he is sinless he is brighter than the sun he is God.
He hung on the cross when he had done nothing wrong for us.
People spit on him the beat him and he did it for us.
He rose from the dead three days later.
We could never love him as much as he loves us.
He's amazing.

Luke 2:52

2010-04-29T06:35:00.000-07:00

Luke 2:52

Jesus grew in wisdom and stature
in favor with God and men.

Easter

2010-04-06T19:18:00.000-07:00

Well it was Easter a few days ago and i had a good Easter.
We just think of the easter bunny and the presents the money in the Easter eggs thats not what it is about.
It's about Jesus and how he rose from the dead.
That would be so cool to be there when he did rise.
i mean to see someone die and then just going to the grave and an angel comes to you and says fear not for Jesus is risen.
just think of that.
I mean really how cool would that be.
Because now we would not just see someone die and then just rise from the dead.
I love that story about jesus.

Leaving The Hotel

2010-03-22T18:10:00.001-07:00

Well today was a sad day we had to leave the hotel. Before we left we ate and that did not go well with me. Well when we were leaving i said i did not feel good. when we were on are way home i was praying for me not to get sick. when we were in the car i threw up. I was praying that i would feel better. We went to subway and i ate some crackers and drank some sprite. Throwing up made it better because that next morning i was going to have to go to the dentist to get my teeth pulled and that was the last day of spring brake. And so God was helping me because the next day i did not have school or i did not have to go to the dentist. When i was in the car i was mad and i was thinking God why did you make me throw up i prayed but you did not help me not to throw up. Then i noticed that he was only helping me.

Love You

2010-02-19T20:56:00.000-08:00

Me and some of my friends went ice skating it was very fun.
I fell 4 times but it was still fun.
well first my friend started to push me then i fell.
We went and ate at a wing place it was very good.
Then we went ice skating.
I had a great time.
There were TONS of people there.
We saw a few people that were really good.
There was this one guy there that was really good but his dance was really weir half the time.
When i get there i have to get used to it but it does not take me long to get it.
I like to go ice skating.
And the reason we went is because we were watching the olympics ice skate and i said i had not been in a while.
and i am glad we were watching them.
well i guess thats it.

Joy's baby

2010-02-09T07:17:00.000-08:00

We met someone new her name is joy.
She is going to have a baby boy and she has nothing for him.
And if you can buy something for him that would be great.
It could be slightly used.
But i will name some stuff that you could get him.

gowns
burp cloth
socks
shoes
clothes

You can get him anything that you thinks he needs.
And you can get him the stuff that i just named.
It does not matter.

Thank You

Love Maggie

Tomorrow is going to be Christmas. I can't wait until i wake up and get all my presents but when i wake up tomorrow i will remember that it is not about me not about the toys or the food its about Jesus. We all have that one thing that we just have to have but we don't really need it but we need Jesus. Without Jesus we could never go to Heaven. So when its Christmas i want yall to remember that its not about me me me its about Jesus's coming to earth and its about giving not getting.

Merry Christmas to all.

Downtown Birmingham

2009-11-27T09:11:00.000-08:00

On Thanksgiving me and my family went to Downtown Birmingham and we took cake for the homeless and we typed Bible verses and printed them out for them. First we parked at a park and my mom my dad and my brother got out and served them. They were so happy that we had brought cake and water for them. I learned that it's better to give on Thanksgiving then to doing something that is good for yourself. And that night we went to have our Thanksgiving dinner at Sonic.

Dove Hunting

2009-09-05T19:30:00.000-07:00

I went dove hunting for my first time today. I did not think i was going to like it that much, but i loved it. I stayed with my dad and i shot a be be gun. I would shoot a box across the field and, empty shells. On the way home, we had a big heavy trailer with 3 four wheelers on it. And it was raining so the road was wet and muddy. So we started sliding all over the place. But, i prayed to keep us safe and we were. I can not wait till the next trip!

Clarkston Georgia!

2009-06-25T19:53:00.000-07:00

Mom, Dad, and I went on a mission trip to Clarston Georgia. We worked in a bracelet making booth. We met a little girl named Shaima, she was Muslim. She did not have a Bible, so my mom gave Shaima her Bible. A little while later Shaima came back to the booth and said, " Thank you for sharing God with me."
God really spoke to me that day. He showed me that we can even be missionarys here in the USA. I really hope to go back soon. Enjoy the pictures below of me and Shaima!

On March 26 I turned 8 years old. The day before my birthday my dad came in the door with two sacks in his hand. I got a little sad because I had been asking for a bike for my birthday.I have been wanting a dog for 3 years. I opened the big sack first, there was a pink towel a dog toy and a dog. I screamed as loud as I could. I went and hugged my mommy and daddy as hard as I could.
So, enjoy these pictures of my new yorkie, Rosie!

Jessie's Place

2008-12-12T10:01:00.000-08:00

Last Sunday I went to this place it was called Jessie's Place. Jessie's Place is a home for women and children who are homeless. I went with my mom, Mrs. Brittnie, my friend, Jadon and Mrs. Lynsey and Mrs. Kari. We took coloring books and books that you can read and you can just look at the books. We took candy and food that's good for you too. There was a little boy his name was A.J. He was really nice at first but then when you get to know him he's really wild. Well when we first got there A.J. grabbed my finger and took me to the kitchen. Then a few minute's later he got really wild. Then me and Jadon met this boy his name was Nathan. He could run very fast. Jadon is really fast too and he could barely beat him. Then it was time to eat and we served dinner to all the moms and their kids. A.J. didn't want to eat. He wanted to play. We played in the playroom with A.J. and Nathan. After we did all that other stuff it was time to go but I did not want to go. We had a lot of fun that day then we went to eat with our friends.I had a lot of fun and now we are going to go every month. Well I don't know about all the other people but I hope they go too. Please pray for the women and children at Jessie's Place. (you can drop off food or toys there anytime you want to)

Queen Esther

2008-11-17T07:39:00.000-08:00

Esther was a very pretty girl and she was very nice. She was taken to the kings castle. The king was wanting to get a new queen. And he picked Esther to be queen. She was so happy.
There was a mean guy his name was Haman. Haman wanted to kill all of the Jews. And Esther was a Jew. Esther invited Haman and the king to eat dinner. When they were at dinner she told them that she was a Jew. The queen also told KingXerxes about Hamans plan to kill her people. Haman did not belive her and said that she just wanted to save all the people. The king left and Haman was about to hurt Esther but all of a sudden the king jumped out of nowhere and saved Esther. Then the king let her people be saved because he loved her. They lived happily ever after.

The story of Esther is found in the old testament of the Bible. There is also a very good movie about this story called, One Night With The King. This is one of my favorite movies!

The Story of Zacchaeus

2008-11-10T08:38:00.000-08:00

Zacchaeus was a tax collector. He cheated people. He was short but he was very tricky. (This story comes from Luke 19:1-10) Nobody liked Zacchaeus. One day a crowd came by and Jesus was there. Zacchaeus was too short. He said a few people wont keep me from seeing Jesus. So he climbed up in a tree. Then Jesus came by and he said Zacchaeus you come out of that tree. He said to Zacchaeus I'm going too your house today. Zacchaeus zoomed out of that tree he said to Jesus if I have cheated someone I'm going to pay them back all their money and I'm going to give half of my money to the poor.

Zacchaeus loved Jesus alot.

Helen Keller

2008-10-23T08:22:00.000-07:00

This week I have been learning about Helen Keller. She lived in Tuscumbia, Alabama. At one and a half she became very sick and ill. She lost her hearing and vision. When Helen got older her parents knew they needed help so they hired a tutor. Her name was Anne. She was strict but she had alot of energy. It was amazing what Helen could do when she was deaf and could not see. She wrote books and helped with the braille system and inspired movies. One day Anne had a good idea she told Helen to put one of her hands under the water and in her other hand Anne spelled w-a-t-e-r. Then she said touch the ground and Anne spelled e-a-r-t-h in her other hand .That day Helen learnd 30 words. One night when Helen was asleep she died. It was 1968 and she was 87.

FIREPROOF

2008-10-16T14:04:00.000-07:00

One night I went to see a new movie with my parents and my brother and sister. The name of the movie is Fireproof. It is one of my favorite movies now. Everyone needs to go see it. A boy and girl named Caleb and Catherine were about to get a divorce and then they got saved. My favorite parts of the movie were when Caleb pulled a little girl out of a fire and at the end when Catherine goes to the firestation in a very pretty red dress. There was a really funny part when a boy is acting moncho in the mirror and another guy was spying on him. I can't wait until this movie comes out on video so I can see it again, and again, and again.

My Babtism

2008-10-15T10:57:00.000-07:00

On May 18 it was my paw paws birthday. And on his birthday something wonderful happened. Me and my brother got babtized. I was so happy because I always wanted to get babtized. Brother Jeff babtized me and my brother, Dallas.My nanny and paw paw were there and my grandaddy and grammy were there too. My uncle and aunt, Drew and Shelby, and my friends from church were there. It was at Shockosprings. There was a pool and a lake.We got to play for a while but then it was time to go get babtized so I had to go to the lake. I did not get to wear a gown because they did not have one small enough.Mr. Brad let me borrow his big white T-shirt. I was a little nervous but it was fun. I tripped in a hole walking in the mud. This was a very special day because getting babtized showed people that I love God. And it was also special because it was on my paw paw's birthday.

When I got saved!

2008-10-14T18:21:00.000-07:00

One night when I was 4 years old I was in my sisters room.She said that I should become a believer. So she led me to Jesus.And I said,"God I know I sin but will you come into my heart and save me?".Now I know who the real God is. I went down stairs and I told my mommy and daddy the good news and they were so happy for me.Now I want to spend my life following Jesus and telling people about Him.
