Cracked-Up Corner

Chaz wanted me to make sure and write a blog about this spot that we used to walk by everyday on our way to school. I put pictures on the website of our first apartment. This was part of our way to Cincel whenever we had to go to a meeting, dinner, class, or see friends. It was only a five minute walk, and it was nice to do this every day. It gave us a little exercise and time to talk.

Chaz and Sherry always have pet names or funny names for a lot of things. They are a lot alike in this way. This corner, Chaz named Cracked-Up Corner. He was always saying, "Oh, we are almost home! There is Cracked-Up Corner!" It was always funny to hear him say that.

Many of you know Chaz' personality. He is a busy boy, but he has a great heart. There is not anyone in this school that he doesn't like. He is so nice to everyone, and he always wants to include everyone.

The other night, we had some Costa Rican friends over for dinner. We do this every Monday night. Chaz asks Natalia, what is your favorite color. I don't know what she said, but a few minutes later, he comes out of his room with a house he had cut out of paper. Of course, he had colored it with her favorite colors. He is truly a gift from God. He made them feel so special.

Also, whenever they talk to him, it is always in Spanish. This night, Chaz attempted to answer back in Spanish. They loved it! He always has the right thing to say or do to make people feel good. Does he ever get into trouble? I am wondering if he ever will be OUT of trouble. I love him, and I know God has a place for him somewhere in life. He already is a great asset to our ministry because of his loving and kind spirit.

Blessings to you all,
