Dooola do (msn sound).....A-to-the-M-to-the-B.....

Oy!
Today had a poopy start as I almost joined a three car crash on the highway and also that me and God had a repentence session because I'm such a whinner when it comes to having to stick around for school... geez do I ever write about anything else?
But I was at the drop in center tonight and I just love being there. Just to be in that place I feel a different kind of freedom! Something about these kids seem so open and honest to be who they are; rather than mask themselves (as you can see in a lot of youth kids). Okay I need to be more specific. Like tonight there was this one new girl and she was all bubbly and cute...but someone had written a big "L" on her forhead in pen as a joke. I watched her for like 15 minutes and she was making a few comments about her being a loser (even in just a joking way). So I took her aside and slowly started to wipe the pen off from her forehead...while explaining how beautiful she is. Then I took a pen and wrote "beautiful" on her forehead and she showed everyone in the drop in center! I mean looking back I could've mentioned the whole Pslam 149 and how beautiful God thinks she is...because that's the REAL amazing part...but these kids are just SOOOO easy to love.
hmmmm......
