ARK

Acts of Random Kindness was the theme for Evan Almighty. It was our family movie night pick this week and what a dandy it was. There was the bible trivia woven into the script which made it interesting enough for us adults. I will never forget Gen. 6:14 states ....make yourself an ark of gopherwood.... There were the animals for Lou and Ray and just enough comedy and plot for Grace and Lee to agree that the movie was awesome, even though when I described the movie as a modern day Noah's Ark story they turned up their noses and sighed, another one of mom's picks. Let me just say that all of my picks including Akeela and the Bee and Facing the Giants turned out to be absolute family winners. We've all been a little more aware of ARK's this week. The bickering about who's a better fill in the blank continues, the squabbles over game pieces happened already this morning, but still I find the kids smiling because they just performed a nice little thing for someone else. Not bad for a box office hit.
