It is 9:07pm on Sunday night. C.J. is being fussy as she gets dressed for bed. She has already been bathed and now Mommy is greasing her up and about to pray and read with her. Daddy, on the other hand, is in excruciating pain. C.J. added to it when she touched my finger the wrong way as I reached out to her. So how did I hurt my finger. Well between sleeping on it improperly and having a 14 pound bowling ball pressing on it during a bowling match today, I think I have done a pretty good number on my poor pinkie. I can not even push off on it...it is that bad.
So today I was on my own. Due to the fact that we were out later than expected last night and that C.J. is a little congested, Mommy decided to stay home with her so she could recuperate for the week ahead. So you know Daddy was lonely on the ride down to church, not to mention that the radio decided not to work again. That was all good, it just allowed me some more time to get my mind right for WORSHIP!
After church the Mt. Sinai church family went out to bowl together. This was a time for Daddy to redeem himself for his defeat last week. Daddy did well today and that might be because his two good luck charms were not present. It seems to work out that way most of the time. Nevertheless he has fun but yearned to get home to be with his leading ladies.
When Daddy got home he played with C.J. the best he could, but his finger really is jacked up. There was even a moment where he needed to move her and he physically could not. Mommy said that she took advantage of my weakness. I think I have to concur. So I am now dealing with the pain as best I can and my girl, who laughed at her Daddy, is resting peacefully. So not much to report today. No blizzard or birthday parties to fill the day. Just good ole fashioned love exuding in the home. So please as you pray tonight please include my pinkie, just like C.J. and Mommy did. We all know that prayer changes things, people and situations.
NOTE TO C.J.: Please understand that when you are hurt, you need to know when to say enough. Do not be like your Daddy and make things worse by ignoring the initial signs. Daddy LOVES you!
