My Dad: I remember waiting in line to buy tickets for playoff games in the 80s

My Mom: And when we actually went it was the VERY TOP ROW of Reunion Arena

Me: Wait...When was this?

My Dad: 85...No! 1986

Me: Was mom pregnant with me? :-O

My Mom: Yeah! And I was having to walk up all those stairs!

Me: I WAS AT A MAVERICK PLAYOFF GAME? OMG! MOM! Thank you, I love you! *Hugs* Happy Mother's Day! Oh, did we win the game?

My Mom: I don't know, ask your dad.

My Dad: Yeah, we won.

Me: My mind is blown right now.

My Mom: (Talking about Lamar Odom) What's with his yellow shoes? That is so tacky!

Laker Fan: That's part of the uniform!

My Mom: No it's not! If it were they would all be wearing yellow shoes. They need to coordinate their outfits.

Prayer Requests from Students

I’ve taken to praying with my students in my first class of the day. I think it’s a good way to start the school day, and it is a Christian school, but some of their requests are downright tickling.

Examples:

“Can we pray that I win my ebay auction so I can build a roller coaster with my K-nex?”

“Let’s pray for the polar bears because the ice caps are melting.”

“Pray for people in Africa, because they don’t have X-box.”

“My rabbits ran away, so we’re getting a guinea pig. Can we pray for him?”

“I want to pray that the video game company I sent an e-mail to writes me back.”

I’m sure there is more to come….I really do pray for anything they request, although I might reword it a little to try to make it seem a little more in line with what I hope to be God’s will. (For instance, I prayed that the student who wanted to win the e-bay auction use what he learns to become an great engineer someday :-P) But I also use it as an excuse to pray for things like the Mavericks winning their games….
