Not a great start

Well I started the year with a great bit of parenting. I was cleaning the grill while Tripp smacked his face on the concert of the back porch. He ended up with a few good scratches on his face nothing serious. It was the first band aid of his life. And I only turned my head for like a second. Crazy what we miss when we look away. My hope for 2009 is for God's mercy, grace and protection for myself and those I love. Without help my focus goes to my selfish desires and I look away from everything I know makes life worth living.
