Small Success A Day at a Time

There we go again with the state of my union.  I hope you all find the humor in the misery which is a normal part of my life.  Perhaps you will relate and/or find humor in it.  Life is hard, much of it is misery, but it is our job to uncover the joy in the journey.  Believe me that is easier said than done.  So part of my joy is making my misery humorous.

A month a go, yes a month, I caught my little boy running back and forth from the toilet and i heard a flush after pondering a second i saw him run there again and decided to check it out just in time for flush number 2.  Sure enough i grabbed some things out of the toilet.  A few days later it becomes clogged and slow flushing.  I try every measure possible to get this sucker unplugged.  I even left it along for a few weeks without using the second bathroom.  Finally yesterday I broke down and bought an auger and was luck enough to get out what was in there.  I didnt have to take the toilet off and I took pride in my succcess!

Ya gotta love the kid stories and ya just gotta love the kids. Wait until they jump all over the top of your car and cave it in. Or kick the side door to the house because they are mad it's locked. It's loads of fun. But when they are gone, who really cares about "stuff". They are wonderful and they are your very joy. They will never be little again. I think it's the most wonderful and sad circle of life imaginable. I am glad I believe in eternity to make up for all the lost time here. I think father time stole a lot of memories from me. I just wish I would have had more time to play and create those memories with my kiddos. You are good at that my son, my son. Keep being that way. In a blink they will be leaving. I pray for them. The world is out to get em. Can't wait to hear what he was flushing though. It's so fun to watch things go down.
