small thoughts


I was looking through some of our pictures and I came across one of my favorites from an album of Leisa's (Grant's mom). The photo below was taken probably ten years ago. Luke had somehow cut his finger and wasn't up for a band-aid. Anyone who knows Luke understands that he can be obstinate or even unmovable when he wants his way. So instead of the band-aid, Grant ripped off a piece from the bottom of his shirt and they wrapped it around his finger. Leisa then took this picture. Little did they all know it would turn out to be a beautiful photo and a lasting memory. I love this small story because it reminds me of that lemonade saying. We can all attest to things not always going our direction. Sometimes we get stuck with what we think is right and fail to recognize that there are other ways.
