LATER, GATOR

Maddy, 5, and I were en route to pick up Sunny Bone-O from the rural kennel in which she’d vacationed during our recent trip. We passed a common sight in springtime Nebraska: an irrigation ditch full to overflowing from recent rains. The water looked cool and inviting on a hot May afternoon.

“Ooh, Maddy,” I murmured. “Would you like to go swimming in there?”

“NOOOOOOO!” she exclaimed, adamantly. “There might be ALLIGATORS!”

Prayer request: My baby brother Danny will undergo Lasik eye surgery today in Boston. Father God, protect his eyesight so that he can continue to have a vision of Your will for his life. Sharpen his focus after successful surgery so that he will be even more skilled at making his loved ones happy and healthy, and living his life for You. (Deuteronomy 31:6)
