When my now 14-year-old daughter was 3 and her younger brother was getting into everything, she asked, “Mommy, can we put him back, now?”
Deciding to take this opportunity as a teaching moment in how siblings should treat each other, I explained to her that we could not put him back – that her brother was a gift from God.
She looked up at me with her big blue eyes and responded, “I understand, Mommy. God didn’t want him either.”

The sole purpose of a child’s middle name is so he can tell when he’s really in trouble.
Thought for the day
Ephesians 5:8
You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.
Before and after — that’s the story of grace.
