As we drove up everything looked in order. This was only a façade on what lie inside. As we entered the house a pungent aroma slapped us in the face and sucked the oxygen out of our lungs. Let me give you a short back-story clip and give you one guess as to what happened…
The day before we left Penny, our hamster, wasn’t looking so well...
Any guesses…?
This afternoon we buried Penny in the backyard and I mustered
all of my parental/pastoring/grief counseling skills and spent some quality
time with my girls. There’s a small part
of me that will actually miss that rodent Penny.
Thought from today: “Will we see Penny in heaven?” I would argue to the affirmative.
You're a good daddy. And pretty good on the pastoring thing, too.

Thanks. I just hope I don't mess them up too bad and end up seeing them on Jerry Springer Jr. when I'm 70.
