I have enjoyed our years together. Not just for the fun times, not just for our Saturday morning adventures in Yard Sale-ing. I have learned patience - as much as I may have wanted them to do this or that immediately then not seeing it happen on my schedule, I have learned that life goes on anyway. One more thing I have learned from my kids. I have learned to see things from their perspective instead of just my own.
Children have a sense of wonder.
A boy came home from Sunday School where they had just had a lesson on Adam and Eve. He was especially amused by the fact that Eve was said to be created from Adam's rib. I think I'm going to have a wife. Children know how to believe. But along about Saturday his mother relented and told him he could go after all.
