on chat too much

Ha ha, about six months ago, Rebekah was reading a book, and she said, "I'm mixed up; I don't know who is talking." There were two people in the book talking back and forth for a long conversation, and she'd lost track of which person was talking.
Well, instead of telling her to look back at the top of the page, I unintentionally told her to scroll back up! LOL, I've been chatting online way too much.

surprise perks at summer camp

JohnDavid is a cut up. Two summers ago (2007, age 10), he went to Gospel Light Youth Camp along with sisters, friends, and cousins. One evening, before the service started, he was talking to some other boys about GIRLS! He looked over and saw two very pretty girls. He told the boys, "I bet I can get those girls to kiss me just like that!" and snapped his fingers. The boys said no, they didn't believe he would be able to do that!
"Hey, you, girl," called JohnDavid, "come over here a minute!"
One of the girls came over right away and asked, "What do you want?"
"Give me a kiss on the cheek." The girl did so without hesitation.
The boys were amazed. "No WAY! How did you do that?"
"Watch," continued JohnDavid, and called to the other girl to come over and said again, "Here, give me a kiss on the cheek." This girl, too, kissed him immediately, and with a smile!
"Wow! No WAY! How can you get girls to kiss you like that?" They were just astonished!
With a smile, JohnDavid replied, "It's a gift!"
He never did let on that his sisters love a good joke too! :o)
