Hello there.
00:00:01.98\00:00:02.95
I've created
Grandma's House so I could be a
00:00:02.96\00:00:05.06
loving Christian
grandma to every child I meet.
00:00:05.09\00:00:07.67
You're gonna meet
some real kids who come
00:00:07.71\00:00:10.16
every week for love
and Christian mentoring.
00:00:10.19\00:00:12.61
Many of them are hearing
about Jesus for the first time.
00:00:12.64\00:00:16.73
My hope and prayer is
that you will be inspired to
00:00:16.76\00:00:19.91
open your arms and heart
to your neighborhood children.
00:00:19.95\00:00:23.17
Welcome to Grandma's House!
00:00:23.20\00:00:25.05
This is Grandma's House!
00:00:37.67\00:00:39.99
Hi there, kids!
00:00:40.02\00:00:42.39
I'm so glad to see you
00:00:42.43\00:00:43.98
I've really missed you
00:00:44.02\00:00:45.75
since the last
time we got together.
00:00:45.79\00:00:46.96
So today I've got something
really extra special here.
00:00:46.99\00:00:50.45
You see, I've
got a couple of boxes
00:00:50.49\00:00:53.07
Well, you probably
can't guess what's in them.
00:00:53.11\00:00:55.67
But " Nope no animals!"
00:00:55.70\00:01:00.22
Remember that I told you
00:01:00.26\00:01:02.12
that I'm just an
antique little girl?
00:01:02.16\00:01:04.06
Well, what do little girls have?
00:01:04.10\00:01:05.88
They have
00:01:05.92\00:01:07.85
Toy boxes!
00:01:07.88\00:01:09.74
So these are my
very own toy boxes.
00:01:09.78\00:01:12.11
I thought I'd share some of my
00:01:12.15\00:01:13.82
favorite toys
with you this morning.
00:01:13.86\00:01:14.92
Shall we do that?
00:01:14.95\00:01:15.92
Lets see what's in my
toy box, you can peek now.
00:01:15.93\00:01:17.78
This is my
granddaughter, Jordan.
00:01:17.82\00:01:19.97
She's been dying to
get into these boxes.
00:01:20.00\00:01:23.20
Let's see what's inside -
look at all the pretty paper!
00:01:23.24\00:01:28.03
Oooooo! PINK!
00:01:28.06\00:01:29.67
Take one, let's see what it is!
00:01:29.71\00:01:31.34
A toy!
00:01:33.97\00:01:35.60
Do you know how to make it work?
00:01:35.64\00:01:37.32
Just wind it up a little bit,
and listen see what she does
00:01:37.36\00:01:40.43
That's one of your
favorites! Miss Kitty
00:01:40.46\00:01:41.94
That's the wrong way,
turn it this way. There ya go.
00:01:41.98\00:01:45.18
Put her on the table
00:01:46.19\00:01:48.26
Whee look at her
go! Here's another one!
00:01:48.30\00:01:51.75
Let's unwrap this one.
Shall we see what this one does?
00:01:51.79\00:01:54.98
Isn't that
fascinating how those work?
00:01:55.01\00:01:57.01
Whee - she's
going off the table!
00:01:57.05\00:01:59.92
Ok, wind this one
up and send it off.
00:01:59.96\00:02:02.79
Oh, this is one of my favorites.
00:02:02.83\00:02:05.16
Hi guys, come on in.
00:02:05.20\00:02:07.33
Wanna help me play with my toys?
00:02:07.36\00:02:09.60
Yeah! You guy's like it?
00:02:09.63\00:02:11.40
What do you
think about that one?
00:02:11.44\00:02:13.44
What do you got there, Alex?
00:02:13.47\00:02:15.44
Kate, come on over here to see.
00:02:15.47\00:02:17.82
You going to let that one go?
00:02:17.85\00:02:19.56
What do you got?
00:02:19.59\00:02:21.27
Oh, he's got the pig that skis!
00:02:21.31\00:02:23.22
What have you got?
00:02:23.25\00:02:24.38
Do you want one?
00:02:24.41\00:02:25.54
Yeah, grab right
in there and find one.
00:02:25.57\00:02:27.70
Oh, that's one of my favorites,
I love the pig that goes skiing.
00:02:27.74\00:02:33.86
Oh, and this has to
be my all-time favorite!
00:02:33.90\00:02:36.91
This is Mr. Frog,
watch the action on this one!
00:02:36.95\00:02:39.47
Check this out, guys! "ooop"
00:02:42.26\00:02:45.63
Oh, and I love
those, put those out
00:02:46.91\00:02:49.00
there so all the kids
at home can see them, too.
00:02:49.03\00:02:51.09
Oh, one more.
00:02:51.12\00:02:52.54
Let's see, where
can I put this box?
00:02:52.58\00:02:55.51
Isn't that awesome?
00:02:55.55\00:02:57.73
A monkey! Monkey!
Look at what he does!
00:02:57.77\00:03:00.45
Wind him up!Keep
winding these up and see if
00:03:00.49\00:03:04.18
we can get them
all moving at once
00:03:04.21\00:03:05.18
- at the same time!
00:03:05.19\00:03:08.26
Oh, look at that!
00:03:08.29\00:03:11.40
Oh, wait, wait wait!
00:03:11.43\00:03:16.66
Do you know what is in this box?
00:03:16.70\00:03:18.99
This is my toy box, too.
00:03:19.03\00:03:20.98
In this box, it
doesn't look much like
00:03:21.02\00:03:23.05
a put-together toy, does it?
00:03:23.08\00:03:25.09
But what do you think?
00:03:25.12\00:03:27.29
You know! Do you ever wonder
about who makes all these toys?
00:03:28.24\00:03:31.20
Do you wonder how there made?
00:03:31.23\00:03:32.42
You ever thought of
making one yourself?
00:03:32.46\00:03:35.55
Well what I thought was..
00:03:35.58\00:03:36.73
I hear a lot about
evolution, you know?
00:03:36.76\00:03:39.84
I thought maybe I can make a
toy without actually making it.
00:03:39.88\00:03:44.33
I didn't have to
actually make it!
00:03:44.37\00:03:45.92
What if I put all
the pieces in here,
00:03:45.95\00:03:48.83
this is just like
the rabbit that he has.
00:03:48.86\00:03:51.84
If I put him in here - all
00:03:51.88\00:03:54.57
these pieces - and
shake it up, shake up the box
00:03:54.61\00:03:57.12
Would somebody like to
shake up the box for me, Kate?
00:03:57.15\00:04:01.48
Shake it up real hard.
00:04:01.52\00:04:03.00
And now open the lid
to see what's in there.
00:04:03.04\00:04:04.70
What's in there?
A taken-apart toy...
00:04:04.74\00:04:07.92
A taken apart toy!
Well, that's no good
00:04:07.96\00:04:11.38
- put it in there
and let's try it again.
00:04:11.41\00:04:14.80
Who wants to shake it
up, Michael shake it up?
00:04:14.84\00:04:17.61
Check and see, what do we have?
00:04:17.65\00:04:21.75
A broken toy. a broken toy!
00:04:21.78\00:04:23.61
Well, I don't
know that doesn't seem
00:04:23.65\00:04:25.02
to be working
real well, does it?
00:04:25.05\00:04:26.39
Hey grandma, the
new kids are here!
00:04:26.43\00:04:29.65
Oh, hey guys, you wanna
go meet some new kids? OK!
00:04:29.68\00:04:33.02
Why don't we all go
outside and meet the new kids?
00:04:33.06\00:04:34.61
We can just leave the
toy's here and come back later.
00:04:34.65\00:04:36.17
OK! Let's go! You
want to meet some new kids?
00:04:36.40\00:04:39.70
You can take that
with you, let's go!
00:04:39.73\00:04:41.62
Come on!
00:04:41.66\00:04:45.68
Do you want to go
right through here? Oooh!
00:04:50.38\00:04:52.71
Come on!
00:04:52.75\00:04:54.63
There are the new kids!
What do you think? Look!
00:04:54.84\00:04:56.42
Come on! come and meet them.
00:04:56.45\00:04:59.29
Ohhh! Do you
know what those are?
00:04:59.32\00:05:03.58
They're little goat kids. Yea!
00:05:03.62\00:05:07.07
And there names are, uh, I
forget, tell me again, Dave.
00:05:07.10\00:05:11.22
Felicia and Lily.
00:05:11.26\00:05:14.19
Yeah, get acquainted
with them, aren't they cute?
00:05:14.23\00:05:15.69
What do you think, Jordan?
00:05:15.72\00:05:17.29
These are some of
my favorite animals!
00:05:22.72\00:05:27.13
No, they don't eat
your clothes. Baaa!
00:05:27.17\00:05:29.04
Oh, aren't they darling?
00:05:32.21\00:05:33.46
When they're even
full-grown, they're
00:05:33.50\00:05:34.94
not an awful lot
bigger than this.
00:05:34.98\00:05:36.39
These are pygmy goats.
Yes! these are pigmy goats.
00:05:36.42\00:05:38.80
Kids! That's why I call
them kids, that's what name them
00:05:38.84\00:05:42.69
Want to come
and meet him George?
00:05:42.73\00:05:45.04
Come on in put
your hand right here,
00:05:45.08\00:05:47.36
touch him softly on the head.
00:05:47.40\00:05:49.18
Oww!
00:05:49.21\00:05:51.97
Did he step on you?
00:05:52.88\00:05:53.85
He stepped on me toes.
00:05:53.86\00:05:56.31
And you know, this one has
00:05:56.35\00:05:57.75
the same first name
as your middle name.
00:05:57.79\00:05:59.22
Her name is Lily.
00:05:59.26\00:06:01.55
Aren't they sweet?
00:06:03.66\00:06:04.80
I've wanted some of these
goats fors such a long time.
00:06:06.10\00:06:09.84
No! They're not
mine, but I wish they were.
00:06:09.88\00:06:12.47
We don't have a
place to keep them but!
00:06:12.50\00:06:15.06
We borrowed them for
00:06:15.10\00:06:16.43
today so you can
meet the new kids.
00:06:16.47\00:06:19.22
The new kids on the block.
00:06:19.25\00:06:20.72
The new kids on the
block, that's right!
00:06:20.75\00:06:24.03
So how do you
think the goats got here?
00:06:24.07\00:06:27.28
Hmmm! A trailer. A
trailer? That's a good answer.
00:06:27.32\00:06:31.74
What do you think? A truck?
00:06:31.77\00:06:34.55
A car? OH! They
were walked over.
00:06:34.59\00:06:39.68
Did somebody make these goats?
00:06:42.18\00:06:43.69
Yeah, God.
00:06:43.72\00:06:45.76
Absolutely - goats
don't just happen, do they?
00:06:45.80\00:06:49.54
Nope.
00:06:49.57\00:06:50.84
No, no more than people do.
00:06:50.88\00:06:52.97
This is awesome, do
you see their little eyes?
00:06:53.01\00:06:56.30
Aren't they sweet? Ahhh!
00:06:56.33\00:07:01.14
Well, while you guys continue
to get acquainted with the new
00:07:01.88\00:07:05.75
kids, I think
maybe I should go back
00:07:05.78\00:07:07.69
inside and put the toys away.
00:07:07.72\00:07:09.63
Do you like the new kids?
00:07:09.66\00:07:11.69
I sure do.
00:07:11.72\00:07:12.92
While I go put my
toys away, I think
00:07:12.95\00:07:15.55
you have time to
write down my address.
00:07:15.59\00:07:18.16
You know I
especially want to hear
00:07:18.19\00:07:20.08
from you guys if you've made
00:07:20.11\00:07:21.66
a toy of your own,
or created something
00:07:21.70\00:07:24.94
oh, I'd just love to see that.
00:07:24.97\00:07:27.17
So if you're all
ready, get your pencil,
00:07:27.20\00:07:30.00
and your paper,
and here's my address!
00:07:30.03\00:07:32.80
Hey kids, Grandma
00:07:32.83\00:07:34.79
Neal would love
to hear from you.
00:07:34.83\00:07:36.83
She loves to get
pictures and drawings,
00:07:36.86\00:07:38.66
and anything else
you may want to send her.
00:07:38.69\00:07:40.83
She also answers each
one of your letters, so
00:07:40.87\00:07:42.96
get your pen ready and
write down her address, ok?
00:07:43.00\00:07:45.82
If you want to write
her a letter address it to.
00:07:45.85\00:07:48.64
Grandma also
loves to get emails...
00:08:03.69\00:08:07.81
She'd love to hear from you...
00:08:15.05\00:08:17.10
Wasn't it fun to see my toy box?
00:08:19.31\00:08:21.65
Did you ever
imagine that a grandma would
00:08:21.68\00:08:24.37
still have her own
toys after so many years?
00:08:24.41\00:08:27.07
Lots of us older
folks are full of
00:08:27.11\00:08:29.78
surprises, you just
can never tell about us!
00:08:29.81\00:08:32.46
I like wind-up toys because
they're all made up of lots of
00:08:32.50\00:08:36.80
the same parts, and yet they
all do such different things.
00:08:36.84\00:08:41.11
It took talent, imagination,
00:08:41.14\00:08:43.47
ingenuity and
creativity to make all
00:08:43.51\00:08:45.91
those different parts and to
00:08:45.94\00:08:48.27
figure out how to
put them together.
00:08:48.31\00:08:50.71
Do you know where
we get our talents?
00:08:51.49\00:08:53.97
We inherit them.
00:08:54.01\00:08:55.21
We inherit them
from our Father, God.
00:08:55.24\00:08:58.44
He's the ultimate Creator.
00:08:58.48\00:09:00.11
Everybody knows that
toys don't just happen.
00:09:00.96\00:09:03.64
They don't just
fall out of the sky,
00:09:03.68\00:09:06.14
somebody has to
design and make them.
00:09:06.17\00:09:08.61
When I go into the
toy store, I don't find a
00:09:08.65\00:09:11.89
bunch of gears, levers,
wheels and feet in a big
00:09:11.93\00:09:15.16
mish-mash waiting for a
tornado or an earthquake to
00:09:15.19\00:09:18.41
come along and make all
the parts fall into place.
00:09:18.44\00:09:21.63
I like pygmy goats, too.
00:09:23.05\00:09:25.27
They are so much
more complex than
00:09:25.30\00:09:28.09
a wind-up toy,
and yet, some people
00:09:28.12\00:09:30.89
will try to
convince you that goats,
00:09:30.92\00:09:33.66
and even people, just happened.
00:09:33.69\00:09:36.41
A little accident
her, a little bump there, a
00:09:36.45\00:09:38.29
strike of lightning,
millions of years, and
00:09:38.32\00:09:40.13
voila- life just appears!
00:09:40.16\00:09:43.77
Common sense
tells us this not true.
00:09:43.81\00:09:47.47
There is a law in nature
called the Law of Entropy.
00:09:47.51\00:09:51.72
Basically it says
that things tend to
00:09:51.75\00:09:54.96
become less
organized, rather than more so.
00:09:55.00\00:09:57.84
What if you left
your room in a big mess?
00:09:57.87\00:10:00.68
Let's say that
you left your dirty
00:10:00.71\00:10:02.68
clothes scattered
all over the place.
00:10:02.71\00:10:04.65
Your toys and
books are everywhere, and
00:10:04.69\00:10:06.55
your homework's in
the middle of your bed.
00:10:06.58\00:10:08.30
Sheets and
blankets are on the floor.
00:10:08.33\00:10:10.77
Now what if you were
gone for five years, and
00:10:10.80\00:10:13.88
while you were gone
there had been an earthquake?
00:10:13.92\00:10:16.97
Do you think an
earthquake would put
00:10:17.00\00:10:19.45
your toys and books
back on the shelves?
00:10:19.48\00:10:21.90
Suppose there had
been a windstorm with lots
00:10:21.94\00:10:24.50
of rain, and a branch
had broken your window?
00:10:24.53\00:10:27.06
Would that have washed your
00:10:27.09\00:10:28.61
clothes and
hung them up for you?
00:10:28.65\00:10:30.21
I don't think so, honey!
00:10:30.24\00:10:32.56
Then why do some
people think that life
00:10:32.60\00:10:35.20
just happened as
the result of accidents?
00:10:35.23\00:10:37.80
God is the reason
everything exists.
00:10:37.83\00:10:40.55
He created the
stars, the air, the animals,
00:10:40.59\00:10:43.27
and especially you.
00:10:43.30\00:10:45.35
Especially you!
00:10:45.38\00:10:47.28
He made you to be just like Him.
00:10:47.31\00:10:49.69
You know what I love to do?
00:10:49.72\00:10:52.43
Find a little
patch of ground about
00:10:52.47\00:10:54.20
- oh, this big.
00:10:54.23\00:10:55.89
Lie down on my
stomach, and just watch for
00:10:55.93\00:10:58.34
a long time to see
what's going on there.
00:10:58.38\00:11:00.76
You can make a
list of everything
00:11:00.79\00:11:02.64
you discover that's alive.
00:11:02.67\00:11:04.52
It's really fun.
00:11:04.56\00:11:06.52
You could follow an
ant around to see what
00:11:06.55\00:11:08.42
he's doing, or watch
a spider makin' a web.
00:11:08.46\00:11:10.30
How big is a
spider's brain, anyway?
00:11:10.33\00:11:13.12
Who taught him how to spin?
00:11:13.15\00:11:15.05
Remember about the toy
store, and the pygmy goats.
00:11:15.08\00:11:19.95
Remember that complicated things
don't just spring out of chaos.
00:11:19.99\00:11:24.20
Remember that you take
after your heavenly Father.
00:11:24.24\00:11:28.44
And your Grandma
Neal - that's me.
00:11:28.47\00:11:30.82
Us three were
made for each other.
00:11:30.86\00:11:33.17
I love you so much.
00:11:33.21\00:11:35.04
Please come
back again real soon.
00:11:35.07\00:11:37.70
We'll have lots of
adventures together.
00:11:37.74\00:11:40.22
Good-bye till then!
00:11:40.26\00:11:42.77
My favorite wind-up toy
would probably be the snail.
00:11:48.63\00:11:52.61
I think they're pretty cool
00:11:52.65\00:11:54.94
- I liked the
chickie because I'd wind
00:11:54.98\00:11:58.21
him up and he'd
jump off the table.
00:11:58.24\00:12:00.05
Goats have four
stomachs, no three stomachs!
00:12:00.08\00:12:04.83
The sure do have
bad breath, though!
00:12:06.07\00:12:08.25
I wonder why
she had a broken-up,
00:12:08.28\00:12:10.42
fuzzy white rabbit in a box?
00:12:10.45\00:12:12.49
Grandma explained that evolution
00:12:12.53\00:12:14.40
is like this
broken toy in this box
00:12:14.43\00:12:16.23
- no matter how much I shake it,
it's just going to stay broken.
00:12:16.27\00:12:19.70
Maybe if I shake it like this...
00:12:19.73\00:12:21.76
Maybe if I shake it like this...
00:12:22.81\00:12:27.38
Still broken.
00:12:35.36\00:12:36.33
Evolution is
something that people
00:12:36.34\00:12:39.96
have just kind of
made up over the years
00:12:39.99\00:12:43.60
where they think
something just kind of
00:12:43.63\00:12:47.23
happened after a
long period of time...
00:12:47.26\00:12:50.87
Please don't let my
friends be watching this!
00:12:58.18\00:12:59.94
