Plans....

...we make 'em and God laughs.

In the course of three months 

I will have two new grandbabies.

They had a birth plan in place 

for number one.

They had a c-section all scheduled.

Then Melody, or more accurately, 

God,

had another plan. 

I like to say Melody wanted to choose her own 

birthdate.

We have a plan in place for number two.

Mike and I will go to Indy to take 

care of our grand daughter

while our daughter has her baby.

I know enough to know that all I can do is

hope that our plan works out.

But I also know enough to know that God's plan 

is perfect and to try to rest in that.

I don't know if Mary had a "birth plan"

but I can pretty well bet you a dirty

manger would not have been part of it.

And yet, that dirty manger was perfect.
