Riding the Spankin' train

Have you ever seen a child throw a tantrum? Sometimes for half a second you might think to yourself "boy, someone is riding the spankin' train and it is getting ready to come into the station".

Have you ever seen an adult throw a tantrum? Really?! Because I don't think Heavenly Father has. I know I threw a tantrum the other day (yesterday) and thought to myself "really? really you think you need to be doing this? You are acting like a child", then it hit me, I AM a child! I am His child and he loves me even when I throw a tantrum. I am sure I sounded just as petulant about things as my 3 year old does when he goes into a fit. I have to remember that. That doesn't mean it is okay that I pitch a fit, however, it does help to know that He loves me always....even when I am ridin the spankin' train.

I have the seat next to Deborah. :) I throw fits like a pro. Which helps in catching the fit throwing coming from the kids. ;)
