On My Birthday, May 22, 2007
I enjoyed my birthday with friends and Praetorium: Leonard, Duane, John, Katrina, Georgetta, Anita, Salana I & II, Holly, Arletta, Mom, grandma, brothers, Auntie Margaret and Uncle Kenny.
We went to The Fifth Annual Arc of Illinois Expo for People with Disabilities, White Castle and Brunswick.
We ate white castle burgers and played a fun fingerspelling game. The competition was tough. We played for a hour til we finally got the winners.
1st Place: Pastor Carole Clemons (3 times)
2nd Place: Ms. Georgetta Maxie (2 times)
3rd Place: Mrs. Salana Walker
We went to Brunswick's to bowl but it was very crowded. We decided to play the videogames, skee ball, race cars, motor cycles and basketball game. We had a lot of fun.
Georgetta, Anita and I ended up at a Chinese Food Restaurant and Georgetta took this picture of me.

God is Oh, So So Good to Me!
Here we go,
This morning Friday, March 16, 2007 at 8:25am my mom was sitting in the rental car waiting for me to come out of my house, so I could take her to work. As I was locking the front door, she began to tell me to call the police. I whipped out my cell phone and dialed 911.
As I walked down the stairs to bring her the phone I looked to the left and saw my car parked down the street. A young man was walking towards me and I said, "Oh you brought my car back to me." But he didn't comment and went to the house next door.
I gave my mom the cell phone and she went in the house and talked to the police. I stayed outside and saw the man talking to my neighbor on the porch. I took my spare keys out my purse and went down to my car and opened the door.
The man came off the porch and over to the car. I stood there with the door open and said,
"You know this my car?" He said, that's what the man told me when I was buying the cigarettes from his house. Little Larry, a little boy, stole your car and I took it from him."
"Where my keys?," I asked him and he took them off his key ring. I said, "These your shoes?" and he got in the car and took them out.
He said, "The car cut off on me (2) two times and I put $20.00 worth of gas in here. The boys ramsacked it and threw stuff in the garbage a couple of blocks around the corner. I'm glad I just live around the corner", he said as he walked off.
Boy, oh boy. We waited and waited and waited and waited for the police to come. One of our neighbors came over to the car and said, "My daughter witnessed the little boy get in the car. His name is Larry. My husband gave you a card that night to call us so we could tell you."
"Oh, and we gave the card to the police and they did not call and ask you," I said.
We drove around the corner and looked in the alleys but to no avail.
All is well. We have the CAR BACK. It's time to sale.
Now, we need to pray for Little Larry and this neighborhood so that they will not end up in jail. We pray that they will repent of their sins and turn to God. We pray that they will seek the face of God, humble themselves before Him, bless & praise His name, ask Jesus to save and deliver them and teach them how to Love the Lord with all their heart, mind, soul and strength. And love their neighbor as themselves. We pray that they will be disciplined, respectful and good citizens in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Hallelujah, Jesus! Hallelu!

Great History Makers, Colts & Bears Coaches
CONGRATULATIONS, INDIANAPOLIS COLTS & COACH TONY DUNGY.
SUPER BOWL XLI CHAMPIONS!
Tony Dungy, Indianapolis Colts Coach and
Lovie Smith, Chicago Bears Coach made history
on February 4, 2007.
They were the first African American coaches to go to Super Bowl XLI(41). They made us proud. We were cheering for both of them. I live in Chicago so, of course I was jumping, shouting and praying for the Bears to win. I felt disappointed when they lose but quickly cheered up when I looked at Coach Dungy.

Prayer is needed
Prayer is needed in our world today. What is it? The opportunity to communicate with our Heavenly Father. To ask, thank, bless and love on God and others. People are sick, confused, undecided, in need and prayer motivates, inspires, helps and soothes the spirit. Prayer is simple. Thank you Jesus for saving me. Thank you God for loving me, giving me a wonderful family and job. Thank you for my car. Bless this day. How can I help you today, Lord? What do you want to say to your people? Be blessed. Amen. Blessings, glory, honor, riches, wisdom, strength belong to you O, God. Amen (Revelations).

Great Day
The picnic at the lighthouse was a success. When we arrived kids were shooting hoops, music was playing, people were eating, playing bingo and winning prizes. Someone was playing the drums and someone else was play the bongos while the DJ played cds. Some people were dancing and having a good time. I enjoyed eating a vegetable burger, corn, cotton candy and a Lipton Ice tea. When it was over we helped put away instruments and sound equipment into the music room. We had a great day. You need to check it out next year.
