Our three year-old granddaughter, Audrey, had just been through an episode of potty training by her Mom, who expressed concerns about her slow progress.
Audrey, somewhat tired of the process, turned to her Mother and asked:
"Can't we forget the potty training and just be friends?"
When motherhood, or any other significant or role or relationship, goes awry, remember that God sees you, hears you, and that you are significant to Him.

Charlie was playing with his little brother Mickey when the little boy asked whether he could fly like Superman.
"Sure you can, Mickey," Charlie said. "Just flap your arms really hard."
So Mickey climbed up on the windowsill, started flapping like mad, jumped, then smashed into the ground just a few inches below.
Horrified, their mother came screaming into the room and said, "What happened?"
Charlie said, "I was just teaching Mickey not to believe everything he's told."
