Come again some other day

Okay, we have had way too much rain in the last 24 hours. Compared to Texas and our Gulf coast, we have had nothing...but it is still unsettling for us to see our house becoming lakeside property. The girls love it. They keep asking to go play in "our ponds". I love the innocence of childhood...no worries about flooded basements or soggy septic fields. Just the joy of seeing their yard fill up with water! :)

I saw this same childhood innocence when we were studying about wickedness in the scriptures this week. My youngest said that she had a good example of wickedness from her own life. She went on to say that one time she had tried to cheat at 'Chutes & Ladders'. Ah, that we all--including our world leaders and politicians--would follow the example of little Ellie, and become convicted by the littlest of indiscretions. *sigh*
