Walking in Victory with the Gift of Laughter

Just a quick funny story that brought a lot of laughter to our morning yesterday and I pray it brings you the same gift of laughter...

As we were rushing through our morning routine to get Belle off to school and Brittany to a Biology Lab we were doing together with a friend, I had given Lola Grace a pad of paper and pen to doodle with to keep her content. About 15 minutes later just as we were ready to walk out the door to the bus stop, Brittany burst out laughing and said, "Mom, look at what Lola's done to her face!" To my shock & amazement, there was my little Lola Grace with a pen colored mustache drawn above her upper lip! She didn't just draw a simple mustache! She scribbled it in to make it look thick and actually drew the ends curled up and spiralled! If the mustache weren't enough, she had also given herself eyeliner, eyeshadow, and rings drawn on every finger - all with PEN!! I didn't know whether to respond in tears that I would have to take her to the bus stop looking the way she did or in laughter! So laughing is what we did...all the way to the bus stop!
