Mike and I were talking this morning as he drove into Elgin for a concert after church. Maybe God is trying to teach us through our baby girl. Clara feels scared and misses her parents when she's in the nursery - so much so that she isn't able to enjoy all the other kids and cool toys that are there for her. If she could just change her thinking a little bit, she would see that there area all kinds of fun things and kids for her to play with. It's So Obvious to us - she's safe, she's loved, we're coming back - but she just can't see it.
It's very much like we are Clara and MBC is our parents. And we're sitting here missing our parents so much that we can't see all the cool toys there are for Us to play with - all the great experiences and people we're missing out on because of wrong thinking and lack of perspective.
Hmmmm. A dose of convicting for Katie the Grouch.
