I was making a beef stew in my crock pot this afternoon when my three year old tried to put some of his Gogurt in it. It landed on the floor and on his pants. He should have been napping in his bed but a nap wasn’t in the cards today. So, he decided to try and put Gogurt in my stew instead. And that made me crazy because he was a mess and did he need another bath and the kitchen was a mess and I just wanted to have my stew in the crock pot so it would be done for dinner before I left to go get my six year old from school. And as I type this, my Gogurt stained child is whining about being hungry AGAIN. What is he going to have, he’s asking me while staring down the pantry. Here are two crackers, now go play on the porch and stop hassling me.

Its the kind of every day stuff many of us deal with all the time.

And it is a blessing.

The stew in my crock pot, the warm beds, the clean clothes, the baths, the snacks, the gas in my car, the car that I drive, the solid roof over my son’s classroom, the still ground beneath us, and all of our lives.

I’m swearing about Gogurt and crackers but, I promise you, I know better.
