When my parents had been married twelve years, they decided to renew their wedding vows in a small ceremony in our attic. A lot of our family came to help celebrate.
When the priest shook the holy water onto my parents, a little bit of it got on my left arm. I could actually feel my arm becoming stronger and bionic.
When the ceremony was done, I had all of my cousins come down into my bedroom and I told them about my newly bionic arm. Of course no one believed me, so I proved it by lifting up the end of my twin bed with my left hand.
Their doubtful chit-chat faded and no one said anything. But I think they were impressed.
I’m a fun-loving foster and adoptive mom juggling a teenager, a tween, and a toddler, all while navigating the wild world of homeschooling. I recently took the plunge and moved to a new state without ever setting foot there—talk about an adventure! This is my real-life story, filled with chaos and joy. My mission? To swap out traditional products and pharmaceuticals for healthier, natural options for my family. Oh, and I really miss writing, so I'm excited to weave that back into my life!

Wow, very original.
Awesome!! I always wanted a bionic arm. :)
You just need a little holy water, Deb:)
LOL! How cute!!
Well of course! I would have been impressed as well. Is it still bionic!
SWEET! Bionic arms are awesome! ;)
So cool. Do you have to have it maintained with frequent sprinkles? ;)
Betty, it's definitely still bionic. I like to show it off when I carry fifteen bags of groceries on that arm.
Ha - I love it!
