Antspray, 5 Unruly boys and Uncomfortable Shoes
My wife teaches Children's Church every Sunday. A couple of Sundays ago she came out in a really bad mood. Tightlipped, she told me the story of why.
A cupboard full of Holy Land maps made with dough was full of ants. One of the high school helpers immediately ran for some ant spray and doused the offending creatures before my wife knew it. Filling the windowless room with poisonous fumes, the immediate death sentence gave her a tremendous headache.
As in every class, there are the out of control boys. Enough said there.
And what woman likes new, tight shoes?
Alacazam, we now have woman in very bad mood. And who could blame her?
Trying to be encouraging, I said something lame about how it is worth it to suffer for the children. Biblical, but not very helpful. Still, it is true. Kids are worth it.
I wonder if the ants died trying to cross the Red Sea?
