Saved by Superman.


Well, I must say that I never thought I would be able to say that. But through a weird set of circumstances, I can. It was a normal average night, Camille and I headed down the normal dreary road to 7-11. We got our mango slurpee's and some Chinese pastries and sat down at the little table to enjoy our treats. As we were sitting there, Camille started to sway her head side to side with the music, and I dumbly followed her. Little did we know how much problems that would cause. There was a weirdo guy outside and he saw us. And he was smiling! I made a comment to Camille that he better not come over to us. And then he came inside and much to my dismay, sat down beside me and with the clearest English, said "You are beautiful." And then walked away. I about died in my chair, never has a random guy ever done that. Then he left to get his things, Camille and I bursted out laughing. He checked out, and we thought "Well, he's gone." Sadly enough, he only put his things in his mop head, and came back in. He then asked me for my phone number, and of course we did not give it to him. He asked how long we would stay, and we both replied "One minute!" with much enthusiasm. He left and went outside, and sat down on the bench. Of course Camille and I were like, no way are we leaving without someone else. Luckily, the Lord provided me with a Sim card for my cell phone the day before and I was able to call Charity and get some help sent out to us. After about 3 minutes, the automatic doors open and there we beheld our hero, Joel. He was wearing his superman shirt so it was very fitting. Never in our whole life were we so glad to see him. So, after getting his groceries, he walked us safely back home, where no more weird dudes can pick on us.

I already told you this, but those are some awesome pictures you posted recently!! Keep 'em coming =)

I've been trying to pick out a favorite, but can't seem to do it, they're all really cool! Which I guess is why you posted all, and not just one of them!

Miss you, and praying for you... and anxiously awaiting the next post and pictures.
