BOOM! BOOM! An't it great to be Crazy! *^its a song btw^*
But I think you meant, "*Ain't* it great to be crazy*?*"

Or perhaps better, "Is it not great to be crazy?"

You're right, but, hey, I wasn't trying to change the words of the post; I was just trying to make it readable. x)

Indeed, I thought as much. I was merely expanding your improvements by making the sentence grammatically accurate as well.

Impatiently waiting for my sibling to arrive. We stayed home from church yesterday, thinking he was coming, but he didn't. That was the third false alarm we've had with this child! But there's a low-pressure system moving in, so maybe tomorrow….

I am sure this must be a very suspenseful and exciting experience! I hope for your sakes that he comes soon. Now, do you use the word "he" as the general term, or because you actually know the gender of this baby?

We use 'he' because it is grammatically correct. Baby is not an it, he is a human being.

We use 'he' because it is grammatically correct. Baby is not an it, he is a human being.

But of course! I understand your reasoning. I think it's always most exciting to wait to find out the gender, not to find out beforehand. But alas, my parents did not decide to take this path with our last baby, my second sister.

I am only here for a few minutes...I need to finish my summaries then I need to prepare for bed. How are you? :)

I am only here for a few minutes as well; for my parents have recently restricted my Internet time limit to 10:00, unfortunately. I am rather well; how are you?

SavedByGrace

Ah, okay. :) I am doing well, as I just told Dani. :) How would y'all summarize Matthew 5 in a few words? Like around 30?

Well… I'm not quite certain how to answer that question. I probably would have to try it myself to tell you. Why do you ask?

93fcb35bede1ac128cb83b71e8060885?s=128&d=mm

SavedByGrace

Because I am trying to summarize it. ;D And having a difficult time putting it into a few words.

Hm. Well, I think it's possible to do it in thirty words or so. It depends on how thorough of a summary you are attempting to make.

93fcb35bede1ac128cb83b71e8060885?s=128&d=mm

SavedByGrace

Yep. As for Matthew five... The Beatitudes? :)

A good deal more than the Beatitudes, but yes, those are at the beginning of the chapter.

2 Corinthians 5:17

This is what I came up with:
Matthew 5: The beginning of the Sermon on the Mount. Blessed are they; Light and Salt of the world; Forgive and don’t be angry; Don’t commit adultery or divorce; Return good for evil; be perfect as Christ is perfect.

Sounds good to me. Except, I don't know if the first sentence is necessary. Other than that, it looks great.

It's just for my own personal use, so it's not for a real important thing. ;D

It sounds like a great idea. For how many chapters are you planning on using this method?

Hello, how are you? ( sorry I can't reply, I'm on my iPad.

I am rather well, thank you. Unfortunately though, I cannot stay any longer. My apologies.
