Boys & their Toys

I think being the Mom of all boys is quite an adventure in & of itself!  I was getting the kids ready for bed recently & when I went in the living room, this is what I found.  My first question was... What in the world is this mess?????  Then I decided to think like my almost 8 year old "contraption maker".  I was able to see that what on the surface looked like a mess, was actually a skateboard ramp for finger skateboards.  Isn't it always amazing that what some see as a disaster, others see as success!  It makes me think of our lives.  Sometimes we simply see the messes that we've made, but God looks on the mess & sees the success that is waiting to come out.
           I did make them clean it up because we had company coming in the morning.  I was quite fascinated though to see that Ian had the same fascination for the use of Duct Tape as his Uncle Phillip & Papa James.  Yes... this is my life, with a house FULL of boys!
