You all know I love to spend time after a long day at work with C.J. Even though I complain nightly, I enjoy chasing her around, comforting her when she whines, watching her explore, and playing with her as she rolls and climbs all over me. When we arrive home we get comfortable and hang out on the floor until it is time to begin our evening routine. Tonight that bonding time was altered.
Daddy is very involved at the church. The only downside to that is that we live forty-five minutes to an hour away from the church. This means when Daddy has a weeknight meeting, sometimes Mommy and C.J. have to go with him up north until he is done to save on gas and traveling time. Normally the time is worth it, but tonight Daddy wasted a trip.
C.J. did get to eat her dinner and Daddy did get to rest for a bit, but the meeting tonight literally lasted for 20 minutes and that is being generous. Daddy was furious when he returned to pick up Mommy and his Princess. The highlight of the night was to see C.J. start whining until her Daddy came to pick her up. Now folks I know this is a sign that I have spoiled her, but as I say all the time, that is OK. I just hate that my time with her is lost sometimes due to my involvement, especially when it is a waste of time. If I could I would spend twenty-four hours a day hanging out with My Princess C.J. and Mommy Dearest.
So folks pray that not too much of Daddy's and C.J.'s time together gets wasted on nothing. Let all things be meaningful. We all know that prayer changes things, people, and situations.
