Loch Ness

This has been a sick week at our house.  I am convinced that every sick germ that our family hasn’t had in the last four years is sneaking its’ way into our vulnerable systems!  Wyatt has strep and Cale has a bad chest cough.  We keep taking kids to the doctor, but most of it is just viruses that don’t want to leave.  If we could buy stock in germs we would be one rich family!  Ha.

So, Cale was home from school today.  After crafts, a haircut, a bath, some books, and a movie he needed something else to do.  I made some bread dough for him to play with.  We had been reading about the Loch Ness monster so he decided to create one out of dough.

While we were in the kitchen I started thinking about the process of making bread.  It sure doesn’t look appealing when it is being mixed up.  I asked Cale if he would like to eat it like that.  He was grossed out and said “No way!”.  There are many steps involved until it is a finished product.  Just like us.  God isn’t finished with us yet.  We are all at different stages in the making. The final creation will be well worth all of the goopy steps along the way.
