hannah & madi

Hannah & Madi have been friends since they were 4-yrs-old
and I was their CTR 5 teacher in primary.
Madi would sit on my lap each week during singing time
because she missed her mom.

Now they are typical "tweens" - always begging for a sleepover

which usually turns into a movie & giggle marathon.

They like to do make-overs when they are together.
These pictures were taken right after a make-over,
probably taken at 1:00 am.

I love Madi because she makes me laugh.
Just before she turned 12 and went into YW, she would always sit
next to Alec during singing/sharing time in senior primary.
Hannah had already turned 12 and, I guess, Alec
was the next best thing.

Note to self: DO NOT sit Alec & Madi together.
They cannot be reverent.
They are silly.
They laugh at each other, and Alec usually
ends up shooting a snot-rocket across the primary room
because they are trying not to laugh.

That is true! It happened twice.
They both thought it was the funniest thing that ever happened
in the Walled Lake Ward primary room.

I tried to not laugh either.
They needed to be punished for their irreverence...
but, remember, Madi makes me laugh.
I did my best to separate them and send Alec to the restroom to clean-up,
trying to hide my amusement at the two of them.

Anyhow, I'm glad that Hannah has such a cute friend.
She's a keeper, fo sho.

Now I'm off to get my car cleaned!
It was so dirty yesterday that I thought there was a dent
on it's backside.
I called and alerted Jeff that we had a big dent on the side of the suburban.

Nope. After a more detailed inspection when I got home,
it turned out to just be really dirty.

Really dirty from our shortcut to the high school.
It's a dirt road, but only 5 minutes to the school.
However the time & money I save on gas,
will be spent at the car wash.
