A little sting...

Remember when you played "duck duck goose" as a kid?  Wasn't it so thrilling when you got chosen? You got to run around and try to tag the other person without tackling them.  It was so much fun!

Being chosen.  It's a good feeling to be chosen.  A boost of confidence. A humble task.

But there are times in our lives when we are not chosen. For a job. For the Yard of the Month.  For a guest list.  For the best recipe or Mom or crafty endeavor you spent hours on.  For an answered prayer.  For a child.

This is where we are.

Our book has been looked at two times and we are not chosen.  (Deep breath)  We hope our book will be looked at 2 more times in the next few months.

Not giving up hope. or prayers. or faith.   We KNOW God is in control but its stings a little.
