Put one foot in front of the other (Part 3)

[Elly4]

Thanks for stopping by Bob! You always put a smile on my face. Thanks too for your prayers. We could use them. I know my son doesn't have cancer, or the myriad other terrible things out there, but he is such a sweet little boy that I just want to protect him forever and I know I can't. Today he freaked out at school because he thought they should have an "Asteroid Drill". They couldn't get him to stop crying so they called me. When I arrived and asked him what was wrong, he explained to me that if the dinosaurs died because an asteroid hit the then that could happen to us too. I explained that dinosaurs didn't have the hubble telescope and NASA and we were fully protected. He said, "Oh, okay" and walked away to play. The intelligence of a much higher age and the emotional capacity of his age of three. Hard to reconcile them both.

I kept reminding myself today that God wouldn't give me more than I could handle. I would have loved to talk to my H about testing and so on, but he's still not in a good place today, so I took a walk with my S to the playground instead.
