Trust Him

 
In my attempt to protect Kellen and Anna, we chose not to tell them about the pregnancy until we were in the "safe" zone. 
 
God had other plans.
 
He wanted them to learn--by watching Tandon and I learn--what it means to trust Him. 
 
EVEN when life doesn't make sense!   

Here is a conversation I just had with this sweet lady. 
 
*****
Anna: Why are you wearing a mask?
 
Me: To wash my face. 
 
Anna: Oh, to get the zippers off.
 
(Hahaha!  My skin doesn't know what to do with the hormone changes that my body has been going through lately.)
 
Me: Yes, to get the zits off.
 
Anna: Why do only mommy's wash their faces?
 
Me: Well, we wash your face when you take a bath.  And when you grow up you will wash your face every night.
 
Anna: When I grow up I'm only going to eat pizza and macaroni and snacks.  And I'm going to get a baby. 
 
Me: Great!  So I can be a grandma.
 
Anna: Yep.  But if God says no, then I'll just trust Him.
