Things to children are never what they are to us. They see the world differently. That's certainly the case with my boys. Driving along the waterfront, to my 6 year old, it's not Rangitoto Island we're viewing, it's Tracy Island, home to the Thunderbirds.

Getting Job
Today, I was empathising with Job. I think I felt like he must of when his camels died. Not that I have a camel, but today our car broke down and had to be towed to the garage.
