Bethany can no longer take Miranda's shenanigans. I tried to tell her that this would never do, especially now that she's reached the age of accountability, but she says she's not baptized until tomorrow, so it's all good.
Ah the many virtues of duct tape! Hilarious. Miranda actually looks like she might be enjoying it. Once a sister of mine who was way past the age accountability duct taped a neighbor boy to the light post because he was annoying her. Our brother who was friends with him had to cut him out of it since my sister just left him there. And I admit, I've contemplated using duct tape for a couple of my primary kids--I should repent.
I showed Sam this picture and he asked me if I would do that to him. Hee Hee. I'll have to save that trick on a day that he's driving me nuts and remind him that he asked me to do it.
Life as we know it is a span so short in duration that should we blink, our lives are past. Mortality is a fabric woven tight with strips of lingering sorrow, peaks of ecstacy, valleys of despair and experiences best described in retrospect as bittersweet. In birth we cry, in life we laugh and weep, in death we wait and wonder. Against this mandatory school called earth we sometimes pass with flying colors and other times we simply do not make the grade. It's not the winning that exalts us in the end, it's the getting up for the bell when our faces are bloodied, when we have all but been counted out lying face down on the canvas of life. When enduring to the end seems less daunting than getting by until tomorrow, the prospect of eternity is blurred, but yet we take one baby step at a time, without acclaim but holding fast to faith until we finish with the victor's sprint.

Miranda doesn't look too upset. Was she a willing participant, or just hamming up for the photos?
Looks like she's using her high intelligence to solve a problem situation!
Bethany is a girl after my own heart! Is this legal? Can I do this and repent later?
Definitely a willing participant - well at least until Bethany cut a strip for her mouth.
Going out on a limb and guessing they can be a handful...
Hillarious!!!!
