So this week the weather as has been pretty great. But with the weekend came wind and rain that I have not experienced in a long time. In the morning I was able to use my knowledge of American Religious Groups when two very cute old men walked up the path and began to talk to the boys and me.
Old man one, "Good Morning."
Me, "Good Morning."
OM1 "It is nice to see a mother working with her children on a project." At the time the boys and I were working on paper mache on the front porch.
"Oh... I am not their mother I am their nanny, I am too young to have children."
OM1 "Excuse me, well you are probably wondering, 'Who are these two old men and what do they want?' well we are from the Watchtower Society and we come around twice a year..."
So I originally thought these men were from some Veteran’s organization but nope, these cute old men were Jehovah Witnesses, bummer.
The men continued they’re informing me why people do bad things. I thought it was because of when Adam and Eve ate of the fruit sin entered the world and until Christ returns we will be in a world of pain and suffering. But apparently it’s not our fault it is only the devil that does bad things. I mean I am pretty sure I have done some pretty bad things without the influence of the devil.
God I pray that your truth finds these men and their fellow Jehovah Witnesses.
As the day continued the wind got stronger, well it did at least to me. The boys seemed to hardly notice. But it felt like November. Luckily I was able to stay inside for most of the day when the boys were out playing with neighbors. Praise God for neighbors!
The day ended with rain and less wind and a cup of hot apple cider with a group of friends. :) Oh and it was my first game night in roughly 5 months.
