Well, we did something I was surprised by. We went hiking in the woods (no small feat with a 2 year old) and my oldest daughter asked if we could build a cross. Now, we only started going back to church when all this happened 50 days ago. Before that, we were regular church goers until 4 years ago.
My oldest daughter has been talking to me a lot about religion, esspecially her doubts. So this took me by surprise.
We built on, about 10 feet tall, in the woods and put it up. When I was done, I looked back and she was kneeling and praying. Wow. Talk about powerful. You don't even have to be religious to see the power in that.
Now we are building the scarecrow and will come in soon for supper.
What a good day. This has been a long time coming, now I just hope it keeps up; but I know hard days lay ahead, no matter what happens...so I will enjoy this one while I have it.
