Gift #299- Messy Ponytails and Unbrushed Teeth



Today I am extra thankful for the morning chaos in my home.  I am thankful for Macy's do- it-herself mess of a ponytail and for the way that one little wavy strand never gets brushed back and gets tucked behind her ear.  I am thankful for that wiggly baby tooth of Sam's that gets brushed only after 15 reminders.  I am thankful for the pancake box that Jack left open on the counter and for the sticky syrup drops on my kitchen table.  I am thankful for the lunchbox that Josh left behind once again and for the big glob of Sparkling Crest toothpaste that he left in the sink.  I know that there are at least 7 mommas in Moore, Oklahoma today who are waking up and wishing for the same type of mess.  PB&J crumbs on their countertops and missing library books.  My heart is broken for them.
