"GOD'S BIG HEART"

"God's Big Heart"

God gave his heart to us.  

He divided his heart to us to have someone accompany him.

I think when people die ther hearts will go back to God.

When babys are born he gives his heart again.

It's a cycle."

"It's good to have a crush at the last quarter of the school year

and not tease you."

WHICH SIDE?

Nicolas asked, "Which side is Talk N' Text?"  I pointed to an area nearest the bench of Talk 'N Text.  Savion asked, "Which side is Ginebra?"  I answered, "All sides."

HOW IT WORKS: LASER RAY GUN

How It Works:  Laser Ray Gun

Robot  -  Laser Gun  -  Hopeless Human

You see when the robot shoots, the gun makes a big loud sound that goes like zzzzzaaaawwww (repeat two times) then the gun's light turns white then the human dies.

ME, MYSELF & I

Nicolas shared this original joke:

Question:  "What did the smallest matreshka say to the bigger matreshkas?"

Answer: "How many are me?"

THE ZEN OF CHILDREN

Children have impeccable timing...

Nicolas approached his father and said, "Dad, I have to tell you something... Yesterday is history.  Tomorrow is a mystery.  Today is a gift.  That is why it is called the present."  He added, "That's from 'Kung Fu Panda'."

"Love Dream - It is when you love someone and you dream about it." - Nicolas Garcia

NO FEAR

At a fast food joint, Nicolas hesitated to ask for a spoon from the food server.  He mentioned he was both shy and in fear.  A few moments later, he stood up and proceeded to the counter saying, "Fear can not rule my life."

MUSEUM NICKNAME

In the National Museum, Nicolas mentioned he loved museum visits. I offered a nickname for him - Mr. Museum Man.  He declined and said, "Call me 'History'."
