Have you ever felt as if you just couldn't do anything right? I remember coming home from work one day to tell my husband, "I can't ever seem to get it right. It's like I never bring the right rock to the table. They always want a different rock!" As 'little ears' are wont to do, Pride and Joy were listening.
One day, the kids brought me a rock from their playtime outside. When I exclaimed what a nice rock it was, they said, "It's yours, Mamma." I asked them why they didn't want to keep such a nice rock and they said, "It's to help you out at work. Maybe this will be the right rock."
I've kept that rock on my desk ever since. Because, you know what? It is the perfect rock.
