Vomit

a Biblical thought...
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)

a Book thought...
While the Builders are most influenced by authority figures and Boomers make decision based on data and facts, postmodern youth are more likely to make a decision based on the influence of their own peers. (p184)
a Dave thought...
Josiah, my two and a half year old son is a very cute child but along with that comes a fetish towards vomiting. Yesterday afternoon was a great example of this and the results are seen clearly above. As I was the sole parent during his time I went into clean up mode, which I am gradually improving my skills in, so I put Josiah in the bath and began to scrub the carpet. It wasn't long however till I heard my little angel yell out "Daddy, get glove, daddy get glove!" I went into the bathroom to witness my son had some success in the 'number two's' area. So along with the vomit on the carpet came a poo in the bath, so to my son's request I fitted a disposable glove and fished out his deposit. I must admit even though parenting is often fun it can also be a lot of work. I sometimes wonder how God, our heavenly father goes with us, because even though I'm sure He thinks we're all cute, He also has to do some cleaning up along the way.

Just a thought.

My wife concerned that 'gradually going into clean up mode' includes grabbing a camera and taking a snap first.

I'm disappointed we didn't get a shot of the bath.
