What Having Pink Hair Has Taught Me






Matthew 7:1
Do not judge, or you to will be judged.
Galatians 2:6a
As for those who seemed to be important- whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not judge by external appearance...
James 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you - who are you to judge your neighbor?

Ok, so by the pics, I have pink HIGHLIGHTS in my hair! The looks I have gotten, crack me up! But then got me to thinking, do I give those looks to people who look different too? I think most times, no, because I don't care what color hair you have or what you look like! I am going to love you for who you are! Not what you look like! Standing in line at Wendy's on Sunday, I was in front of this family of 5, they looked as if they just came from church (no, not ours), their one little boy looked at me, then at his parents, then back at me, the look on this kids' face, wow! Then his mom took him over closer to him and patted him on the shoulder, like, don't look at her! I am thinking, ok whatever, you have to be careful because I am some kind of monster and am going to eat you up! WHATEVER!!!!!! We need to be careful at how we look at people, like the verses say, don't judge, we have NO RIGHT to judge people! It is not our job to do that, it is up to God. Our job is to love them, NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like it says in Galatians, God doesn't judge by external appearances, so why should we? Think about it!
I may come with a different hair color next week, just to see what kind of looks I can get! One of the reasons I did it! People would look at me, then look at my kids, and they would have a look of pity for them! What's up with that? Love them for WHO they are, and NOT what they LOOK like!!!!!

Awww, I saw your hair on Sunday, but I just felt bad for you because i thougt it was a highlight job gone bad!! And I only say that out of fun because one time I turned my hair GREEN and it took months to get it fixed!! I still can't live that one down. You are rockin' the pink, though :)

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
