...just in case...

It's cute (and funny) when little kiddos use grown-up phrases to describe their situation. Today after math, J-P declared emphatically, «I'm not feeling well»
When I asked him what the matter was, he looked straight at me and said, «just in case I don't understand!»
;)

Distraught!

Sometimes it isn't just bad health that makes days longer and patience shorter. Sometimes, just sometimes, it takes more. Working out a non lactose, non gluten diet,  taking adequate fluids and evaluating new energy sources has left me quite wiped out. I long for some extra rest, some quiet time... But alas when I came back from washing pre lunch dishes I found my day's hard work on the floor. It looked worse than this. Sigh.
So now I'm faced with my own inadequacy, my lack of humor, my short patience and a bunch of mess and theres no one who can save me but the Savior of mankind. Today I taught JP about Jesus great sacrifice and after our story he said to me, ' Mama did Jesus drive a truck after he was born in south india?'... Hmmm...
