Give Me Your Boys – er- Eyes
The middle school boys from our church camped out at our house this weekend for “Disciple Now.” This year’s theme was, “What if….” with curriculum developed around the lyrics to Brandon Heath’s “Give Me Your Eyes.” Rachel was in Galveston for a school function; Hannah and Lois were at their own host homes. Julia – of course – was in the big middle of all eight of our boys.

“Mom, they’re in my room. I could just sleep on the floor next to them….” Ha!

She could have eaten pancakes and waffles with Mom, Dad and leader Ross in the dining room but oh, no…

I don’t remember any Brandon Heath tunes on the Rock Band menu, boys. Julia was crazy to play but I reminded her we had guests. Sigh.

May I just say that I think the three silliest words in the English language are, “Not Dishwasher Safe?”

That’s Lois and Hananh, second row from the top, on the left. They prounced their themed shirts “fly.”
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
Ones that are far beyond my reach.
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see
And give me some more hands to finish all this laundry and clean-up.
Amen.
Hey - It's Us!
