Blessings & Baptism = Wineberg Happyism

Today May 25th 2008 Ashlyn Shelline Wineberg was blessed in the Plano 6th Ward. I was so thankful to be able to give this blessing to her. How funny is it that she decided to blow a load in her pants during the blessing. HAHA well anything less would be uncivilized. We were blessed to have Rich, and Clyde join in the circle of the Preisthood. Adam was there but unable to take part but the blessing of having his spirit there was just as good as if he could have been in their too.

It was just the beginning of such a wonderful day. Today also was Jeffrey Wineberg Jr baptism. He turned 8 back in February but he put his desires aside to hold off on the baptism until Ashlyn was born so we could do both ordinances at the same time. It was amazing. He was so excited and the spirit was so strong there. We surely missed Sonia, she was sick and couldn't make it, Taylor and Candra couldn't make it either. They were all in our hearts and prayers though.

Jeffrey was so overly excited about his baptism he was pretty much doing Adams talk on baptism for him, though Adam did a great job anyway. Sonia was going to do the talk but ended up sick. It was sure nice to see all the family turn out to this.

I want to say thank you to Clyde and Stephanie, Rich and Michelle, Adam (Sonia in spirit, she made the trip from Houston)Heather, Dad and Kim,(Taylor & Candra in spirit) and ALL OF THE NIECES AND NEPHEWS!!!! for making it such a special time for our family today.

After the baptism we had those who cold make it, over for food and drinks. Crazy how small a 1500 sqft apt feels with 13adults and 16 nieces and nephews.. can I just say WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!..

This was such a great end to such a special day and I can honestly say that I love them all.

God Speed EVERYONE!!!!!!!

YOUR KILLING ME SMALLS !!!!!!!!!

Going to tell you a funny but quick story about my Little Mini Me! I love my son Jeffrey Jr so much and he makes me laugh so hard I almost want to pee myself.

I took him on our Father Son camp out Friday Night. We had such a great time. We had a bomb fire and cooked weenies over the flames and marshmallows too. My son came up to me and Bishop Porter as we were talking and had a few questions.

The first was "If its wrong to make babies with your siblings how come Heavenly father let Adam and Eve make babies and they were brothers and sisters?" So bishop almost choked on his food and Brother Terry stepped in. He said well Jeffrey if it was not for them we wouldn't be here. He then said he had another question. He said well how come there are no black people at the father son camp out or in our church.

Brother Terry responded that if he would take a look around he would see some. Brother Walton is black and brother Terry proceeded to tell the story about the Lamenites and Nephites. He talked to Jeffrey about how heavenly father distinguished the difference between the sinners and those who wanted to follow his plan of salvation.

This brings me up to today. Tracy received a call from Jeffrey Teacher. Jeffrey was in Study Hall and he was having a disagreement with a little black girl. She was talking about black people but doesn't remember what about. He told her that the reason black people were black is because his church believes they were "SINNERS". This stems from the conversation that the Bishopric had with Jr during the camp out. Jeffrey was doing nothing but explaining what the church believes.

Mr Friedman called Tracy wanting to know if he should be recommended to a counselor. Tracy was thinking about that and asked why and then he told her about this issue. I am so proud of Tracy for sticking up for Jeffrey. WAY TO GO TRACY!! She told his teacher that Jeffrey was not wrong because this is what we believe. She informed him that we were Mormon and we believed this and she would talk to JR about no talking about this in school. Mr Friedman didn't know what to say so he ended the call with Tracy.

WOW!!! I wonder what this is going to spark. Maybe it will be nothing. Maybe we will get a call from the principal asking for a meeting. Who knows.. But I do know this. I will not back down and will not allow for anyone to make mockery or issues about truth the Wineberg Family. They really don't want to mess with me so I hope that they just over look this as an incident and move on. Please feel free to chime in on this. I am still laughing about it as I write this blog.. Well ok time to go eat Frito Pie. MMMHMMMM!!! Peace Out!!!
