FEET OVER THE DOORSILL

One of our favorite softball dads on our daughter’s traveling team is a high-ranking firefighter. This past weekend at a tournament in Tulsa, he and his wife were in their motel room watching a movie when the phone rang.

It seems one of the softball moms had had too many margaritas . . . and had passed out on the floor of the party room downstairs. Since he was a big, strong firefighter, could he come down and help the girls carry her upstairs to her room?

One can only imagine what he was thinking as he came off the elevator and saw her feet sprawled out on the doorsill of the party room. Tsk, tsk!

SURPRISE!!!!

It was just a ruse to get him to come downstairs for his surprise birthday party. He was met with a tiny plastic toy firefighter’s hat, a cake with lots of candles, and lots and lots of jokes and good wishes.

Praise report: We are elated, O Lord, to learn that Andrea, the girl with the head injury from last Tuesday’s prayer request, has come through surgery with flying colors. Doctors are amazed, and the family is praising You and the power of prayer. Thank You, Sweet Jesus, for being so worthy of our trust and so willing to act upon our stated needs. (1 Peter 5:7)
