i could hear the balloon pop

Went out and picked up the tires for the maverick today. Then I drove over to a restaurant and had lunch with a guy today. I owed him a lunch for setting up my wireless router and was looking forward to the experience of sharing a meal with him. We were there and met out waitress. She was pleasant looking and had a kindly manner to her. She looked at my buddy and exclaimed that her daughter was as tall as a four year old and she was only two!! She was obviously proud of that and we were amused for her. After she left I asked my lunch companion who the girl was and how he knew here. My friend told me a story of a foster brother he had, and this brother is the father of the 2 year old girl. We then joked about a 10 foot tall teenage girl and other silly things, forgot the conversation and moved on to other topics. After lunch I had to jet off to a doctor’s appointment where I was sitting in a room with several VERY young soon to be moms. I then heard about one of my friends who had gone into labour earlier in the day. (She is married)(Calm down) so all in all this has been a very baby day.


I met with a mom today that was very concerned that I was pushing teens into sexual knowledge by letting girls who show cleavage come to youth group. I ended the conversation by telling her that she is right, this youth group might not be safe for her boys. But then nether is the school or church. Then we looked at some of the sexual imagery available right out the church windows. (Radio station bill board) We prayed for her sons and that she would have wisdom.



She left in tears.
