Can God MAKE you do something?

I asked my Mom if Satan could MAKE you do something. She said, "No, he just tries to influence our decisions." Then I said, "The only person who can MAKE you do something is God, right?"
"Why do you say that?" said my mom.
Here is the story:
A long time ago I was about to sneak something. Then God made me so I didn't do it. He did it by talking to my mind. I'm glad that that happened. I think it was cool.
I also asked my mom how I was supposed to be like Jesus. I got really sad and started to cry. I explained to my mom that I was upset because I was afraid to die on the cross like He did. Now I know that only one man did that. There is one Savior for us all. I can't wait to see what people do in heaven.

Here are some pictures of me writing 10 times, "I will treat Miles kindly"

Volcano!



The other day we made volcanoes. When we made volcanoes, we made them out of playdough. We cooked them, then we put them outside in the backyard to make them hard. We painted them with our paints then put dinosaurs all around the volcanoes. To make them explode, we put a toilet roll in the middle, then spooned some baking soda in the bottom. A few drops of food coloring next to make red lava. Then we got some vinegar and poured it in. It exploded! It worked several times and was really interesting.

Later my dad explained why it exploded. When the acid from the vinegar gets on the soda it makes carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide makes the bubbles, making the volcano explode!

If you want to try it, I would say do it, and you can tell me about it on your blog. (If you have one).




Kayla cried the whole time.
