I think sometimes God puts humor into our lives to make sure we can laugh when we would otherwise be stressed. The week started with two of the boys showing up in my office wanting to show me their new "purchase". It turned out to be two young turkeys. I work in an office with mostly women, all of whom wanted a look at the turkeys, and all of whom would scream when one tried to get out of the box - myself included. The turkey are now in temporary residence in a rabbit hutch in one of the boys rooms. They have adopted the boys as their moms and will chirp until one of them returns to the room and lets them out of the hutch so they can settle on the boy's lap, or arm, or wherever. They have provided quite a bit of entertainment over the past week.
I think they are missing Zach while he is away at church camp this weekend. I hope he is having fun, making new friends and absorbing Jesus' love while he is there.
Then of course there is the son who decided he wanted blue hair. He talked his friend's mom into highlighting and coloring it. He hasn't come back home so I can see how it turned out yet but he says it didn't "all come out blue." I can't even imagine what the boy is going to come home looking like but I am sure it should be interesting.
We are going through a time where God is leading us to make some changes in our lives, some exciting some a little frightening. But the fun times that come through having our family sure help with anything we go through. I think it is one way of the Lord saying, "Don't worry. I know what I am doing, Just follow through, everything is going to be just fine. Follow where I lead and enjoy." I am going to trust him and do just that.
