                     Chapter 3

                                          Abby

I noticed that I have described most of the main characters in this story, except for Abby.

Abby is seventeen (almost eighteen) years old, she has long blonde hair and is a healthy weight.

 I thought that I also might add this fact about Abby for comedy, her annual salary is a little over $350,000 because she owns the child training center. She has very cheap help because The Wolf is her only worker. For a wolf he is a very hard worker. When she really needs the help, her sister, Chloe, will volunteer sometimes.

Abby decided to place the call and call her sister about El Diablo. Steve and Chloe said that they would let their son go through training and Abby said since she helped out a lot that she would not charge her for her services [If you remember in book one, The Wolf simply replied to El Diablo, “It's really top-secret” when he asked how his parents could afford the courses. The Wolf said this because El Diablo was being nosy and because I could not think of a reason until now so I figured that this would be the official reason until the final revision of the story. [This revision is necessary for the story to be easier for the readers to understand.]

Anyway, Abby sent out the wolf to pick up El Diablo and while she waited she played in the video game room for a little while until the wolf showed up with El Diablo.

Abby also had a secretary who helped her out. She is a 47 year old woman who is a little heavy and she was a very kind and compassionate woman to the children who walked through the door, including El Diablo.

When El Diablo arrived at the child training course center, Abby was confident that he would take no more than two weeks to train, but she had no idea who she was dealing with.

Sunday 15 March 2009 - I'm blogging again!

 

Hi!  I am so sorry that I have not logged on in such a long time!

A lot has happened in the past year.

I’ll start with the city of Monkey Town.

You see, we have this city (more like country) that we made up called Monkey Town. (We would have a better name now, but we were monkey "addicts" in 2006.) I was the very first president to ever be elected into office in Monkey Town, but on November 4, 2008 Ian Brown ("Leopard Party")  was elected into office.

I lost the “Primary Election”, however, I still had three “Write-In” votes for president, but still lost. I now fill several other political positions including vice president.

 This has been deemed  legal because “The Constitution of the City of Monkey Town” had no law prohibiting one individual filling more than one position.

Now, on to the REAL stuff! Our beloved pastor, Dennis Smith, resigned from pastoral duty October 23, 2008 (I think it was the 23rd). It has been hard for me to accept our transition of getting a new pastor. He served for 22 long, faithful years. I even now miss him dearly, but am also confident that God has a new plan for our church.    

I also very recently joined the church choir and sing as a Tenor. I prayed before making this decision and decided that God was calling me to make this step.  I have been in the choir for a few weeks now.

May God bless you,

Jordan

Dec. 18, 2008 - Yet The Lord Has Blest Me So

 

Yet The LORD Has Blest Me So

 

It still amazes me,

How a God so big and so mighty

Would even care to look and see,

A wicked wretch like me!

 

I’ve failed at times, yes I know,

And often tears begin to flow,

I think about my sins and woe

 Yet the Lord has blest me so.

(Chorus)

 

God gives me all I need, and then even more

He loves to show me what he has in store.

I cannot think of all my woes,

Because the Lord has blest me so.

(Chorus repeat)

My God, He swaddles me in His arms of love

He fixes my eyes on the treasures above,

Why should I think of all my woes

When the Lord has blest, has blest me so.

(Chorus)

 

(Chorus)

The Lord has blest me, so immensely.

The Lord, He has blest, He has blest, He has blest,

The Lord, He has blest me so.

Nov. 30, 2008 - Youth Renewed Like Eagles

 

  Yay, I am FINALLY writing a new blog entry!!!! About time, huh???

Psalms 103:5

5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.

A few weeks ago I heard a sermon by Rev. J. Burnett, that included much of this information on eagles. Thirty-two times the Bible mentions the eagle so this must mean that this animal is significant! We must "live like eagle saints, in a chicken world!" LOL!  

Chickens are crowd-followers. If the group is leaving, they are leaving too, even to the point where if the group is falling off a cliff they are falling too! They don't have any interest except their own.

There is a huge contrast between the eagle and the chicken, the only similarity I can think of, is that they are both birds. When we think of the eagle, we think of majesty, awe, and even reflect upon God, but when we think of the chicken, we think of dinner!!! There is something special about eagles, they are on our coins, we name our foot ball teams after them and they are our national bird!

 Eagles are very interesting, they seem to know who the creator of the universe is, because of their habits, or some would say, instinct.  Not only do eagles take turns when they are eating, but for some reason every time before they eat, they bow their heads as if in prayer to God.

Even the eagles know that a baby needs both his Mommy and his Daddy taking turns to feed their babies. The baby eagle knows that as soon as he opens his little mouth, that his Mommy and Daddy are going to fill his mouth with good things. We are not much different, we need to be nourished and fed like baby eagles, only we need to be fed with the Holy Spirit and with the Word of God. We are starving for the Word of God.

Baby eagles are cute, just like most babies are, (it is lucky that they are cute otherwise who knows what would happen to all babies). They are expecting to be fed by their parents, but at some point, they will have to feed themselves. It is the same for us, we should not depend on the pastor or the church (or our parents or any others) to feed us. We should feed ourselves once in awhile, or more that once in awhile!

 Life inside the nest for the eagle is wonderful, fed and sheltered, but sooner or later the baby has to leave! The mommy begins to remove the comfy things from the center of the nest, which forces them to move towards the sides of the nest. The baby is reluctant to move to the edge of the nest. Sometimes, we are reluctant to move out of our comfort zones. Sometimes in order to fulfill God’s will in our life we have to be uncomfortable. We have to move out of our comfort zones. Faith says, we will trust God to supply our needs, but do we really trust God when push comes to shove? He just wants us to fly. He knows what is best, when we are ready, and about how much we can handle. God can fly faster that we can fall. He will always be there above you to catch you when you need Him!

There is a lovely bouquet of purple roses arranged with little white babies' breath, mingled in with the bouquet! Don't they smell lovely?

The best part of this party is no clean up! No cooking and no prep! This is the perfect thing for my lovely Quietcajun!

Sep. 16, 2008 - Autumn is just around the corner

This was one of my favorite poems as a child.  Of course, every time I think about it I think of the movie "The Outsiders". It just reminds me the world is in constant change and no matter how hard we try to keep things just as they are today, it just can't happen.  And while we may grieve that which is no longer, it doesn't mean there isn't something better waiting around the corner. 

Nothing Gold Can Stay

by Robert Frost

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold,
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
