A Strawberry Day

We were at the park when this really nice lady told us that the fire station had their doors open which meant that people could stop by and check out the engines. So we left the park in a hurry and headed right over there.

 He was such a good good good boy while we were there. It is the best!

My mom shared a story with me yesterday that had a really profound meaning to me. A lady in her church tried her aunts vanilla ice cream multiple times and never liked it, she thought it tasted too tart. One day she decided that once again she would try the vanilla ice cream, she took a big scoop and shoved it in. When she bit down she felt something squishy and slimy, she spit it out and it was a strawberry. All along she had been eating strawberry ice cream. She thought she was having vanilla but it was strawberry!

The moral of the story is, sometimes we think we are supposed to be having a vanilla day and things seem to be going wrong at every turn as they continue to not work out according to OUR plans. But maybe, just maybe, God has planned out a strawberry day for you and it could possibly be the best strawberry day ever! Haha or in some cases the best strawberry LIFE ever.

Perspective, perspective, perspective.

So maybe when Kacen dumped that whole box of cereal on the floor this morning it was just part of that strawberry day.

Headed to Connecticut to visit my sis this weekend so stoked, hopefully the kids cooperate. So well catch up later. And a reminder, if you read my blog and have a blog too and I don't have your link on the side please let me know I would love to see what you and yours are up to :)
