Prayer Copier!!!

Sooooooooo I was remembering this moment with Odin from a few years back it completely cracked me up ALL OVER AGAIN!!! So we're have prayer time and we’re literally 10-seconds in to praying when Odin looks at me like I had just stolen the 10 commandments from Moses on mount Sinai and says, 
“ARE YOU COPYING ME???”
.
I’m like, NO, I’m praying!!!
.
He says, Weeeeeeeelllll, I said, I love you God! And THEN YOU said I love you God too!!! So, YOU DID COPY ME!!!
.
I was liiiiiike, yeah I said I love you God too, NOT BECAUSE I WAS COPYING YOU, buuuuuuuuut because, 
.
I LOVE GOD!!! 
.
There was a REALLY LOOOOONG PAUSE, then, 
                             ooooooooh ok, I guess that’s ok then!!! 
.
I was liiiiiike, WOWWWWWWW!!!🤣🤣🤣

I have to say, Odin has a way of making EVERYTHING extra interesting!!!! Buuuuuuut sure do love this kid!!!

Confidence is not walking into a room with your nose in the air and thinking you’re better than everyone else…
It is:
 "Walking into a room and…
NOT having to compare 
yourself to anyone in the first place!!!"
.
It’s just embracing the person God made you to be and being the very best of that person you can possibly be!!!

Even in my sleep!!!

Sooooooooo the other day I'm having this dream, that my sister and I are at Dillard's, shopping at one of their big sales. Well my sister goes to pay for her $2 item and the cashier says to my sister, "that'll be $6!" And my sister says, well it's marked $2  and the lady says, well yeeeesss, buuuuut we're adding on an automatic $3 fee for the big sale today.
.
Soooooooooo my sister is like, well that makes NO SENSE Forget it I dont want it! And the lady says, it's too late, you can't leave the store without paying the $3 fee, plus the other two for the product EVEN if you don't want it now because someone else COULD'VE already bought it by now. 
.
Soooooooooo they're arguing back and forth, the cashier is suggesting she just pay the $6 DOLLARS, the place is packed out with crazy shoppers, (Btw: I wasn't buying anything, sooooo it REALLY WAS a dream!!!;) Sooooooooooo just as security was about to be called on my sister, I wake up...
.
Annnnnnnnnnd the first thing I think is WAIT, $2 plus $3 isn't $6, IT'S FIIIIIIIIIIVVVVEEE DOLLARS!!!!Then I was liiiiiiiike OMW....
EVEN IN MY DREAMS...
Sorry, I havn't accomplished sleeping selfies-YET! Still working on that!!! ;)

I'M BAD AT MATH!!!!

WHY God cannot be understood!!!

I was talking to one of my friends one time, and we were discussing how sometimes we just can't understand God. We don't get WHY He does things a certain way or WHY He allows certain things to happen. We just have to trust Him and know that He is looking out for us...And I started off in the discussion pretty theological "...the foolishness of God is wiser than men..." (1 Corinthians 1:25) 
.
I'm like you know, we just don't understand the way God works...Sometimes He’s JUST HARD TO FIGURE OUT!!! Then without thinking about it, it just came to me, I'm like, buuuuuuuuuut THEN AGAIN that makes PERFECT SENSE...
AFTER ALL...
HE'S MALE!!!
*ba-dum-cha 🥁
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! 
 BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! 
Then I seriously just cracked myself up!!! For like five minutes straight!!! I laughed and laughed and laughed about that!!! I even patted myself on the back! Good one Mary! GOOD ONE!!! 
.
Heeeeeey men just take it as a compliment if we females can't figure you guys out...its a GODLY TRAIT!!! Annnnnnnd if we CAN figure you out...that probably means your TOO MUCH LIKE US!!! As Bishop Abbott would say, "Go gargle some gravel!!!" AHAHAHAHA!!!
♥Mary Frances :)
I know that God is a spirit, buuuuut Jesus, who IS GOD manifested in the flesh, , is a man! Furthermore, every time God is referred to in the Bible, it is ALWAYS in a male connotation...NEVER FEMALE!!!

Mary’s Random History lesson of 2026!!!

  1. Sit back my lil children, MARY, is about to teach:
THE HISTORY OF MAYONAISE!!!
 
Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise (Now more commonly known a Best Foods) was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York . This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is, of course, known as...
Sinko de Mayo
Best Foods Gluten Free, Kosher Condiment Mayonnaise 30 oz ...
AKA: CINCO DE MAYO!!!
 .
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm like, literally soooooo FUNNY!!! If NO ONE else laughs, it's ok, BECAUSE I DID!!! Cracks me up EVERY YEAR!!! Hope Everyone has a good Cinco de Mayo!!! 
♥Mary Frances :)
.
P.S. BEST TEACHER EVERRRR-we also now know WHY I'm not a teacher...apparently, Adventure's In Odyssey's Imagination Station, isn't considered a "proper" way to be edu-a-MA-kay-a-tid!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! 
♥Mary Frances :) 
P.P.S Has anyone else realized that this year Cinco De Mayo has landed on a TUESDAYY??? You knoooooow TACO 🌮 TUESDAY??? Could someone eat a taco for me??? i accidentally ate pizza 🍕 and now i’m at work!!! When will Cinco De Mayo be on a TACO 🌮 TUESDAY AGAIN??? PLEASE GO EAT A TACO FOR ME!!!!

Seeing through LOVE!!!

Sooooooo the other day I was at Fry's getting out of my car, when I heard a couple talking to each other about a car. They were like, OH look at THAT CAR, that's a beautiful car!!! And in my head I thought, who cares about some fancy shmancy car!!! I LOOOOOVE MY CAR!!! I love my Honda Element! I don't care if it's not the latest, greatest, thing!!!  It's high off the ground, but compact and it has THE COLDEST AC annnnd it's really cute and reliable!!!! Sooooooo what if it has some scrapes and a dent on the bumper!!!! Those things just give it character!!!! It's THE BEST car I've everrrrr owned and I LOOOOOOOOVE my Orange Blossom Orange Crush, scrapes, bumps, DENTS AND ALL!!! 
.
Weeeeeeeellll when the couple saw me as they walked by they stopped said, OH we were just talking about your car, it's a BEAUTY!!! I was liiiiiiiiiiiiike... OH THAAAAAAANK YOU!!!! They were like, yeah we love Honda Elements, we used to have one and really miss it!!! I was like, Oh totally agree!!! This is my favorite car i've ever owned!
.
And we parted ways smiling! 
.
Annnnnnd I thought, that must be what it's like to see through the eyes of love. When you love someone, you don't stay focused on all their flaws and imperfections. Yeah, you know they're there, buuuuuut you LOVE them!!!
.
God sees us through the eyes of love So often we compare ourselves to others. We want to be like them! (ok just to be really honest, I don't struggle with this a WHOLE LOT....buuuuuut occasionally...every ONCE IN A BLUE MOON!!!;) If only I was more like this or like so and so! Buuuuuuut God sees us the way I saw my car and was defending it in my head. He hears us or knows what we're thinking inside and he's LIKE, whaaaaaat??? That's MY GIRL and I think she is AWESOME!!! She's just the best thing everrrrrr. That's MY CHILD!!! I took EXTRA time to make him the way he is. 
.
God's LIKE, no I'm NOT talking about someone else, THAT'S YOU I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!! You don't need to try and be like someone else!!! Bumps, scratches, imperfections, flaws and all, 
GOD THINKS YOUR AMAZING!!!
"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: Marvellous are thy works; And that my soul knoweth right well."

Grandmas these days!!!

One of the boys in the Kid's Club I work at was guessing ages of kids and the other staff members. I told him to guess my age and he just kind of shrugged and was like, Idk probably the same age as my grandma.
.
I took a deep breath and reminded myself that kids are KIDS and then I just said, Yeah, I know, I"m getting OLD!!! He's like, I didn't say you were OLD! I was like, yeah, you did! He's like, NO, I said you looked as old as my grandma!!!! I was like, well yes, and grandmas are old ladies, right? 
.
He just shrugs and casually says, 
my grandma is 30!!! 
AHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!
IN MY GRANDMA ERA!!!

Can God do ANYTHING??? #BishopMemories

Bishop Abbott would tell us this in his preaching that people like to challenge the awesomeness of God. 
.
Christian's will say God can do ANYTHING!!! 
And there are ALWAYS agnostics that like to challenge this with a question like this...
.
If God can really do ANYTHING...
Can God MAKE a rock SOOOO BIG...
that He can NOT move it?!
And at first your like well God can...
BUT then your but WAIT how could HE NOT be able to MOVE it then...
AND still be able to do ANYTHNG?!
Hmmmm...
Bro. Abbott's like, Well I KNOW the answer to that but what do YOU think?!?!
AND we're are ALL sitting there like Ummmm...uh...
Just WAITING for Bro. Abbott to give us some DEEPtheological answer...
Bishop Abbott says...
"Yes! God can make a rock SO big that He can NOT move it!!!
And THEN He can move it! Because He is God and there is NOTHING that God cannot do!!!"
Then he goes on and says,
"You say, 'Well thats a corny answer!'
WELL...THAT was a CORNY question!"
.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I love him so much!!!His explaination are SOOO simple...
BUT they serioulsey ROCK!!!
(Pun INTENDED;)

That awkward moment when...

Sooooooo I was as on Pinterest and randomly reading gift 🎁 idea 💡 lists and I found a list that I wanted pretty much EVERYTHING ON IT!!! And I was THINKING liiiiiiiike omw this list is probably for young adults, liiiiiike people that just graduated from high school/college age range cuz ya know, I’m younger than most 42-year-olds…
.
Buuuuuuuuuut much to my dismay when i looked at the age range for this gift idea list, IT WAS NOT GIFT 🎁 IDEAS FOR YOUNG ADULTS…
.

It wasn't even a list of gift ideas for TEENAGERS...
It was gift ideas for…
TWEENS!!!
.
OOOOOOOPS!!! 😱 
I was liiiiiiike SERIOUSLY??? My tastes haven’t even made it to TEENS YET??? Let alone young adulthood???🤣😂🤣
.
I can just see my future grandchildren talking to their peers, like, no really, hot pink and cute bows are for old people!!! What do you mean your grandma doesn’t have stuffed animals and shopkins??? My grandma loves getting teddy bears 🧸 for Christmas!!! Wait, soooooo YOUR GRANDMA DOESNT LISTEN TO ADVENTURE MS IN ODYSSEY WITH YOU????

Grow a candy cane!!!

Fuuuuuunnn Kid’s Christmas Activity!!!
.
Sooooooo i did this 4 years ago with some of my nieces and nephews and it was soooooo cuuuuuuute and fun 🤩!!! Anything with pretend or the imagination YOU KNOOOOOOOW IM IN!!! 
Currently, all my nieces and nephews are too old to do this now, buuuuuut, in a few years we can do it again with baby Lucas….
.
Grow A Candy Cane 
Supplies: Round peppermints,(candy cane seeds;) dirt, mini flower pots, candy cane
* Note to parents, don’t leave your Candy Cane plants outside because ANTS 🐜 loooooooove them!!!
Directions:
1. Fill flower pots with dirt
2. Next you get a unwrapped round peppermint candy, or the candy cane seed, bury it in the dirt, 
3. Water 💦 the peppermint seed
4. place it high on a window 🪟 sill “to get sunlight” but also so your kids can’t continuously watch and analyze it- you wanna keep it somewhat secretive so they don’t catch on and will be in aw of the process.


5. Parents when your kids are out of sight, bury a candy cane straight down into the dirt. so nothing is showing.
6.For a few mornings in a row you make a big deal of watering the candy cane seed, take it off the window sill, let them water it and tell them just to be patient. 
7. on the 3rd or 4th morning you start to pull a little slither of the candy cane up, make a big deal about it, Ooooh looooook, your seed is Growing!!!!! WOWWWWW!!!!

8. every morning pull the candy out a little more before they water 💦 it!!!
.
A LITTLE MORE GROWTH…
THEN CHRISTMAS EVE OR CHRISTMAS MORNING…

BAM 💥…
FULLY GROWN CANDY CANES!!! 😱 
.
It’s sooooo cuuuuuute and fuuuuuunnn!!! 
 If i was a kid i would have looooooooved to do this!!!! I asked my sister how old she thinks i would’ve been before i realized that the candy’s cane seeds were just PRETEND!!! My sister was liiiiiike, weeeeeellll considering you just NOW REALIZED they’re not real… it probably would’ve bee a WHILE!!!! ahahahahahshahahaaaa!!!! 😂

If my mom was Rudolph!!!

Soooo one day, while my mom was alive, her and I were doing 
some Christmas baking at her house. We're just mixin an stirring, listenening to Christmas music, havin a good sweet, mother/daughter time together. 
.
All of the sudden, over the radio comes on the song Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer! I've always liked this song, you know, its just kind of happy and fun....WELLL...My mom is like, "YOU KNOW, I've NEVER understood this song!!!" [So i'm thinkin like oh great, here comes a lecture about how this song has NOTHING to do with the birth of Christ...(Which is TRUE...BUT...its still a fun favorite of mine)] so she is like, "I've NEVER understood this song" ...she pauses then continues... 
.
"if I WERE Rudolph, her NYC accent kicks in like she never left 30 years ago, I would have just told THOSE OTHER Reindeers WHATS UP!!!" She's like waving flour in her hands, "I wouldn't of let them treat me like that!!! I just woulda let them know!!!" 
.
AHAHAHAHAAA!  I was  laughing soooo hard! "I'm like, "MOM, I'm SURE YOU WOULD HAVE!!! I'm SURE YOU WOULD HAVE!!!" (You know, MY MAMMA AIN'T NO ONES DOOR MAT!!! Trust me!!! ;)
.
Sooooooooo I saw this and thought...
IF my mom HAD BEEN RUDOLPH!!!
Those Deers are BLESSED, that MY MOM wasn't Rudolph...
THEY REALLY ARE!!! BAHAHAHA!!!
I seriously have THE AWESOMEST MOM EVER!!!

Happy Brain-boosting Wednesday!!!!

Here's your middle-of-the-week brain booster!!!
.
♪Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer♫ Had a very shiny nose♪♪ annnnnnnnd if  you everrrr saw it, YOU WOULD even say it GLOWED...♪
LIKE A LIGHT BULB!!!♫
"Did you know???..."

 Rudolph’s red nose is probably the result of a parasitic infection of his respiratory system. According to Roger Highfield, the author of the book “The Physics of Christmas: From the Aerodynamics of Reindeer to the Thermodynamics of Turkey” the world’s most famous reindeer has a red nose due to a parasite. However, Rudolf’s relationship with his parasite is symbiotic: after all, the red nose illuminates the path through the winter night for the whole reindeer team.

.

"...Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllll NOW YOU DO, annnnnnnnnd don't you FORGET IT!!!" (AIO BTV quote;)

Seems rather fitting in these times that the world's story of Christmas is all about a reindeer with a VIRUS!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAAA!!
.
 Merry Christmas! 
Let your light still shine brighter than a reindeer with a parasite!!!! Hee, hee!!!

The safest hiding spot!!!

Merry Mary Moments brings you, 
THE SAFEST HIDING SPOT
 for MARY'S PRESENTS!!!
This year, my sister and I just decided to do stocking stuffers for each other and we're using the money we would normally use to buy gifts for each other, to buy tickets for our next trip.
.
Sooooooooo i have to admit, that even in my 40's I STILL sneak around to try and find where my sister hid my Christmas Present...
 EVERY YEAR!!! 
.
BUUUUUUUUUUUUT let me share you from a Christmas a few years back...
I know, I know, soooooooo childish...buuuuuut I will do this at age 100...no matter what you say, LEAVE ME UNSUPERVISED, annnnnnnd I will be searching!!! And YET, I still DO NOT wanna be TOLD what I'm getting and want to be surprised...Or at least PRETEND to be surprised...I know, I know....SOOOOOO IMMATURE....buuuuuut at this point, I don't think it's everrrr gonna change!!! Hee, hee!!! ;)
.
Soooooooooo one year, AS USUAL, I THOUGHT I pretty much KNEW EVERYTHING my sister had gotten me, clothes, hiking shoes, etc...all the normal things I always want, and I pretended to be surprised for everything as usual...lol...I'm opening a little box, not really paying attention, talking to everyone as I go and I look down to actually see what I'm opening and realize...
OMW!!!
I'M UNWRAPPING THE NEWEST...
FITBIT WATCH!!!
I was seriously soooo FLOORED!!!😲😵
My other fitbit had broken, and I HAD mentioned that I was going to wait til after Christmas to get a new one but never thought she was going to get it for me!!! I was liiiiiiiike, I OMW,  I had absolutely NO IDEA you were getting me this!!!  I was liiiiiiiiike, I NEVERRRRR even saw it in your closet when I was looking!!!
.
She's like, thats because I hid it in a spot I KNEW you would NEVER look!!! I'm like, WHERE??? She smiles and says, THE IRONING BOARD!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! I was like, WOOOOOOWWWW!!!! Buuuuuuuut...VERRRRRY GOOD HIDING SPOT!!! Hee, hee!!!😇
.
Okaaaaaaaaay yeah everyone, I DO NOT IRON MY CLOTHES and i don't care what anyone thinks!!! Ok, ok, occasionally, if I really, really, really love something enough and it really needs to be ironed AND i forgot to bring it to the dry cleaners, I will iron, buuuuuuuut for the most part, I just don't!!! So far I have ONE GREEN DRESS that I actually love enough that I will iron it buuuuuut other than that, it ain't happening!!! 
.
If any guy has on his list of things he wants in a wife that she needs to be willing to iron his clothes, you can just cross ME OFF your list!!! BAHAHAAA! I heard one lady once say, girls, IF YOU LOVE YOUR HUSBAND you'll iron his clothes!!! i'm liiiiike, Okaaaaaaaaaay, I'm WILLING, buuuuuuuuuuut IF HE LOVES likes in any way HIS CLOTHES, he will NOT ask ME to iron them!!!! Jus sayin!!! *Mary at age 20: Mom do you think we can fix this blouse? Mary, you MELTED the material!!! What about if i wear a shirt underneath and wear my hair down??? Mom: Next time, BRING IT TO THE DRY CLEANERS!!! 
.
Soooooo my sister said she had it on the ironing board under some clothes in her room and she asked me before she left the house if I was going to iron my outfit for church and I just looked at her like she was CRAZY, and very obnoxiously said, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! She said she just thought to herself, well, 
IT'S SAFE!!! AHAHAHAHAAA!!!
Soooooo there you have it folks, MERRY MARY MOMENTS presents you with, THE IRONING BOARD, the safest spot to hide Mary's presents!!! Hee, hee!!!
