Some days. Big words don’t flatter. Like at 6:00 a.m. Three girls. With three different problems. Needing coddling. And talking. While, stomach refuses coffee. Some days.

A perfect tune. The Conductor, prayed in. He is here. He instructs. He is truth. Trusting Him, we start. Each plays his/her part. Not a […]
