Fire-Breathing Soccer Player
Maddy is having trouble being intimidating on the soccer field. Some of the other second-graders are a head taller. With freckles and a ponytail, she’s not very threatening looking, and sometimes when she kicks the ball, she emits an adorable combination of a grunt and a squeak.
So she has a plan: she is going to stick BABY POWDER into her nostrils next game.
Then, when the time is right, she is going to SNORT IT OUT . . . and make them think it’s SMOKE!!! No doubt they’ll all fall down in a faint, and she’ll get an easy score.
Ah, the things in these young athletes’ heads. . . .

PRAYER REQUEST: Lord, there’s a very nice older man named Philip who has just discovered he has an aneurysm on his brain, and also has to undergo a tricky surgery on his jaw so that he can open up his mouth wide enough to eat without pain. Father, grant Philip protection, healing and comfort so that he can enjoy his grandson’s wedding this summer, and remind all of us never to take good health for granted. (Job 8:20,21)
