the oceanside


my daughters bedtime prayers are so often times of laughter for me and my husband. oh, the things a three year old needs to speak to God about!!! tonight however was a different matter. she seemed to mirror my heart's cry tonight when she said of our friends down in mississippi and louisiana,

"oh and God . . . help me understand why you just didn't keep the water on the ocean side . . ."

out of the mouth of babes . . .
