Monday Morning Joys

Well, it's Monday morning, 18 degrees and snow flurries. The whole family was up early to take Aprille for an MRI. We were first on the schedule. No sooner than we had arrived for the appointment the fire-alarm went off at Vanderbilt. People were leaving the building but we were escorted to the patient holding area to proceed with the MRI. But the MRI machine didn't get the memo that we were coming early and during a fire-alarm. It would not work. It's Monday! A wasted morning...not really. I sat with Faith and we laughed together at FRESH PRINCE on the flat screen TV. I read some funny girl quotes out of a magazine. Faith said "Like really dad, will you shut-up!" I almost went back to sleep in the waiting room recliner. Although the MRI had to be rescheduled, the morning wasn't that bad. I found it to be somewhat joyful!

Lord, You have a way of making a upside-down morning right-side up. Thank you for the joy of the moment. Amen.
