Other Plans

Today was supposed to be another one of those days when once I dropped C.J. off, I would not see her awake until the next day. I was scheduled to stay down in Trenton for a program sponsored by my students. However as soon as I arrived to work, Mommy called me to tell me that I needed to come get them after school. So Daddy quickly made the calls necessary to inform all who needed to know that he would not be attending tonight's program. Instead he would be home with his two leading ladies.

Now of course Daddy was OK with this. Any time he can spend with his darling C.J. and Mommy he welcomes with open arms. Daddy developed a major headache on the ride home. He let Mommy know that he was going to chill out on the floor for a while. Mommy chimed in that she would be doing the same. So we both were on the floor with C.J. as she played with her toys. Before we knew it C.J. had somehow ended up on the other side of the floor. Now this is funny because she does not crawl. This girl has mastered rolling and that is how she gets where she wants to go. So again Daddy and Mommy had their plan but the Princess had other plans of her own.

Now we are winding down for the night. C.J. is in bed. Daddy is blogging. Mommy is washing dishes and preparing C.J.'s bag for tomorrow. All is well on the Old Bridge front. Another day has come and gone, and though it did not go as planned, sometimes other plans occur to make what should happen come to fruition. So as we continue to wind down and Daddy has a small cup of tea, please remember to pray because we know prayer changes people, things, and situations.

NOTE TO C.J.: It is great to be organized and follow a plan but sometimes you will find great joy in just going with the flow!
