I'm counting ... two ... I'm counting ... 7] Because I'm the Mommy (Daddy). 8] Let's not discuss that at the dinner table. 9] Why is your brother (sister) crying? 10] Okay ... but only five more minutes.

Section Three -- Matching Match each vocabulary word with its definition. (4 points per question). 1] Amoxicillin 2] Legos 3] Pull-Ups 4] Push-Ups 5] Tubes A] Small bits of plastic designed to accentuate any style of carpeting.

(5 points per question) 1] It is 8:50a.m. School starts at 9a.m. Where are your car keys? 2] She says that he started it. He says she started it. Who's right? 3] You are attempting to go to the post office with two very large packages, two very small children, zero very close parking places, and one frazzled parent. How will you accomplish this? 4] At 7p.m., you must be at dance class with Debbie, Cub Scouts with Carl, and soccer with Susie. How will this be done? Section Five -- Essay Answer the question and defend your choice. (19 points) Which of the 'Big V's' has made a bigger contribution to parenting: Vacuum cleaners, "Velcro", or the VCR? --Author unknown. Today's Faith 'n Truth-Builder "...building up yourselves on your most holy faith... (Jude 20)." Living the Bible His name is Bill. He has wild hair, wears a T-shirt with holes in it, jeans and no shoes. This was literally his wardrobe for his entire four years of college. He is brilliant. Kind of esoteric and very, very bright. He became a Christian while attending college. Across the street from the campus is a well-dressed, very conservative church. They want to develop a ministry to the students, but are not sure how to go about it. One day Bill decides to go there. He walks in with no shoes, jeans, his T-shirt, and wild hair. The service has already started and so Bill starts down the aisle looking for a seat. The church is completely packed and he can't find a seat. By now people are really looking a bit uncomfortable, but no one says anything. Bill gets closer and closer and closer to the pulpit and when he realizes there are no seats, he just squats down right on the carpet. (Although perfectly acceptable behavior at a college fellowship, trust me, this had never happened in this church before!) By now the people are really uptight, and the tension in the air is thick. About this time, the minister realizes that from way at the back of the church, a deacon is slowly making his way toward Bill. Now the deacon is in his eighties, has silver-gray hair, and a three-piece suit. A godly man, very elegant, very dignified, very courtly. He walks with a cane and as he starts walking toward this boy, everyone is saying to themselves, You can't blame him for what he's going to do. How can you expect a man of his age and of his background to understand some college kid on the floor? It takes a long time for the man to reach the boy. The church is utterly silent except for the clicking of the man's cane. All eyes are focused on him. You can't even hear anyone breathing. The people are thinking. The minister can't even preach the sermon until the deacon does what he has to do. And now they see this elderly man drop his cane on the floor. With great difficulty he lowers himself and sits down next to Bill and worships with him so he won't be alone. Everyone chokes up with emotion. When the minister gains control he says, "What I'm about to preach, you will never remember. What you have just seen, you will never forget. Be careful how you live. You may be the only Bible some people will ever read." - Author Unknown. Message distributed by E-Mail Ministry. Inspiration, News, Devotionals, Humor & More to Start Your Day!

About this time, the minister realizes that from way at the back of the church, a deacon is slowly making his way toward Bill. Now the deacon is in his eighties, has silver-gray hair, and a three-piece suit. A godly man, very elegant, very dignified, very courtly. He walks with a cane and as he starts walking toward this boy, everyone is saying to themselves, You can't blame him for what he's going to do. How can you expect a man of his age and of his background to understand some college kid on the floor? It takes a long time for the man to reach the boy. The church is utterly silent except for the clicking of the man's cane. All eyes are focused on him. You can't even hear anyone breathing. The people are thinking. The minister can't even preach the sermon until the deacon does what he has to do. And now they see this elderly man drop his cane on the floor. With great difficulty he lowers himself and sits down next to Bill and worships with him so he won't be alone. Everyone chokes up with emotion. When the minister gains control he says, "What I'm about to preach, you will never remember. What you have just seen, you will never forget. Be careful how you live. You may be the only Bible some people will ever read." - Author Unknown. Message distributed by E-Mail Ministry.
