Get to our front door.
Open the door.
Up the stairs.
Oh no!
We forgot to shut the door.
Back downstairs.
Shut the door.
Back upstairs.
Into the bedroom.
Into bed.
Under the covers.
We're not going on a bear hunt again.
I don't think I would have given this book much thought if you handed it to me a couple of months ago. However, when a friend gives it to you after hearing of your poor prenatal diagnosis because she was given this when she too was given a poor prenatal diagnosis, and she gives it to you with the intent that it might comfort and uplift you a little, I gave it much more thought.
Life is hard. There are a lot of things along the way that we have to go through. And even after all of that, the outcome may not be what you expected or hoped for.
I pray with all of my heart that Emma will be born alive. Yet I don't know if she will be or not. However, I know that my Lord and Savior will be there for me whatever the outcome is.

I never really thought of that story as being a life lesson. Maybe that's because we have the song version where they "have" to go through and candy factory and a peanut butter river :) But maybe, at the end of this life we'll get to look back and realize that the mud and the snowstorm really were a candy factory and peanut butter river. Not in the sense that they'll have been fun to go through, but in the sense that we will have wanted to go through them.
