Yup, It Was A Zoo

Soooooo, yesterday was great but it definitely was a zoo experience. Let's see, to begin with, we had an "accident in the pants" episode, a near escape of another accident in the pants, & another one that had to pee so bad that they peed in the parking lot of a KFC just down the street form me.

Oh yes, that was all before we even got to the end of my block. And I even made sure to have everyone go to the bathroom just before we left. Anyone ever notice how kids are a little like dogs when they pee? It's like they only release a little, store the rest, release a little the next time and store the rest, and on...

We all had a great time though, I would do that every Monday if I could. I was thinking yesterday that if would be fun to get a group to go with me next time, but seeing how I have a strange day off it might turn into me and a bunch of stay at home moms, which could be a little weird.

It did all make me think though, that while it felt a little like a zoo for me, it didn't for the kids.

Why? Because I had everything under control. All they had to do was enjoy the trip.

I wonder how often our lives feel like a zoo because we forget who is really in control and we're then striped of the ability to just enjoy the trip. I wish living this way was as easy as typing it.

Well, got a staff meeting this morning in a few minutes then a day filled with returning calls, responding to emails, & finalizing my message for Sunday. Trying this morning to keep my focus on the love that God has for me & trying to live out of that today. May you also know today, just how precious you are to Jesus, and how close He is to you today.
