Finding Grace-Filled Confidence in the Chaos
“Blowing Kisses”My son has lots of goofy things to say, like yesterday when he was eating grapes.
Will: “(counts) 1…2…3…4….5” (crunching noise)
“1….2….3….4” (chewing noise)
“1….2….3..” (repeats crunching noise)
Me: “Will, are you enjoying your grapes?”
Will: “No, they’re subtractions. And they’re yummy.”
This is a photo of the Pizza Shop, a popular place to eat in my hometown of Mayville, North Dakota. It is quite well-known throughout the state and is also the place where I had my first ever job! In March the Goose River, which runs behind the Pizza Shop, quickly flooded my favorite establishment and ruined the whole interior. It is now being remodeled, but you can see how high the water is on the building and how the road that runs in front of it was covered with water as well. Come back quickly, dear Pizza Shop!
The Will-ism:
“Mom, I’m starting to get very upset with you. Because you made me stand against the wall.”
