just when i’m ready to tear my hair out

Colin has been driving me completely crazy.

Last night, I returned a quick phone call before dinner.
I found Colin at the table, eating guacamole out of the serving bowl with a fork.

This morning, I was putting on my makeup.
I found Colin drawing on the bedroom wall with a non-washable marker.

I did not handle it well.

I arrived at Bible Study frustrated and exhausted and happily dropped him
off in the nursery, eager for two whole hours of peace and quiet.
Then i learned that my friend's 5-year-old son was just
diagnosed with thyroid cancer. He's having surgery today.

Please pray for little Josh.
And hold your babies a tighter tonight.
