Day 184 - MY bum gets burned

We stopped at the playground today because we had a few extra minutes before lunch with my mom. It has been so ridiculously hot out lately that the park is not very fun. The slides are so hot, the equipment is scalding. Too hot to really play on it. But Jossy has been begging to go on the slide and swings for days now. I went down one slide with her since it was hot and I had longer pants on than Jossy. It burned right through my pants as we slid down. It made Jossy smile to go down it though. So as I reflect on today, I think, the sacrifices I have to make as a parent to make her feel joy sometimes brings me pain. Just like how God send His son so that I could feel joy, He felt pain. Something to chew on.

John 3:16
