I love my Singing Company kids...that's all there is to it.  No matter what, they can put a smile, a grin, on my face.  Tonight they came to hang out with me in the nursery...and they found this new game, "it's awesome, you'll love it!"..."It's called MASH."  I tried to explain that we used to play, but my explanations fell on deaf ears.  These eight-year-olds then proceeded to play for each of them-determining who they would marry, what kind of house/car they would have, etc.  Let's just say that eight-year-olds should not do MASH for their adult supervisors...but if only life were that easy.  This is who you will marry.  This will be your job.  This is how much money you will make.  This is how many children you will have.  The end.  No struggles, no disappointments, no doubts...Just plain answers. 

I realize God has an amazing plan for each person, and that life would not be interesting, nor as special, if everything were layed out on a sheet of paper.  And I do believe that the easiest way is often times not the best...But at times...it seems like that would make it all so much easier.
