I got your Back

Having 3 growing boys means the kitchen is the favorite room in the house.  Keeping "snacks" in the house is a full time job.  I have to get pretty creative with my hiding skills.  You would think the higher the better.  Not so much at my house.  Gage got the bright idea for the brothers to use each other as a stepping stool.  To start with Gage got on all four and told Hutch to climb on top.  When Eric asked what they were doing Hutch launched into a detail description of their goal to reach the Snacks.  Gage screams from below, "Quit talking and get the snacks already."  Hutch was not tall enough but that did not deter my determined 1st born.  They recruited Curtis to the pile.


Eric and I  watched the process fail.  We finally had to leave for school, so my husband easily reached the snacks and handed them to the boys.

Mom Lesson:  How often do we try our best to figure things out our self.  The good Lord is waiting to reach the "snacks" for us, yet we are to prideful and stubborn to ask for his help. 
 Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart and lean not on your own understandings.  In ALL your ways acknowledge him and we will direct your paths.  Proverbs 3:5&6
