The sickness continues so we are having to cancel Little’s party again. I can’t help feeling like it is a lesson for me in the “counting your chickens before they hatch” category. I got all excited about the details and put too much significance in it all and then for two weeks we have had to punt it.

We are going to have the party one day – just not sure when. And I’ll probably post pictures afterward but I am not going to tell anyone when it is coming. Maybe my heart will be in the right place and I can humbly help my daughter enjoy a celebration of turning five. That’s what I am going to pray toward – a fun celebration for her and her friends. Not a show for her friends’ parents.

How do I end up in these places?
