Q = Quirkiness

Day #17 in my A-Z series on “What Makes Me Happy?”

QUIRKINESS

I like different folks

Not afraid to be quirky

Stand out in the crowd

There is nothing ordinary about my three Swiss grandsons! You just saw the namesake of one of them… and then you met my youngest one … the sushi guy. Both are Christian. But, no, I’m not sure about the Christ-like part. They are named Christian … the first crazy guy was our Swiss AFS exchange student in 1980-81. Our daughter married his first cousin – and later named her third son after him.

Now, before you start judging all those unusual and zany folks, just remember, “We’re all a quirky work in progress.”

Jesus ain’t finished with us yet! And He was a little quirky, too, don’tcha think? Water into wine? Who’d ever done THAT before??

Walking on water?

How quirky can you get?

Such quirkiness is challenging. Folks who are different sometimes want to fit in.

That can be hard. And sometimes heartbreaking! But I say, “Embrace your differences! Celebrate quirkiness!”

Here are all three of those Swiss grandsons. Each is unique. Each is a little quirky in his own way.

Quirkiness makes me happy. It makes the world go round.

What’s quirky about you? Do you love it?? God made you unique.

Just remember, He don’t make no junk!! 🤪

  1. I’m accepting my quirky 😁

  2. Ohhhhhh yes. You got THAT right! Your grandsons are certainly quirky! Hah! Oh, and just a small correction: Chris is holding a plate of dessert macaroons, not sushi 😄 You DO realize that I’m quirky, too, and got it from YOU and Dad! You both gave me so much love that I was able to grow up to be exactly who I wanted to be. Thank you!!!

    • Ah, you’re welcome! We do love you, Sweetheart, soooo much! And your quirky husband and kids, too! ♥️🤪💕🤪❤️🤪💝🤪❤️🤪💞

  3. What a wonderful family you have Jan.. 🙂

    • Thanks, Sue. That’s just the Swiss bunch! I have a wonderful son in CA with his wife and 3 of their 4 kids in their 20 somethings. One of theirs is my granddaughter, Hope, and her husband Drew who have my great-grandson, Xander, with another on the way. Yes, I truly am blessed. Thanks for your visit and for taking time to comment, Sue. ❤️👍🏽

  4. Lovely family, and you definitely have a quirky friend in me! 🤗
