6/12/2016, Day #164 of 2016. I cannot find any proof of this, but FB told me that today was International Children's Day. It matters not, but it is interesting that we spent the whole day dedicated to events involving and honoring children. Starting early with a softball playoff game (continuation from last night's game suspended for darkness) - WIN! Continued in the afternoon, when we watched our kids in their piano recital (always makes me smile), and then finishing up honoring one of our neighbor's children who is soon graduating from High School. All this focus on children on a day when we are also thinking about the victims in Orlando, as my friend stated so astutely, all of whom were someone's children. There is a lot of hate and evil in the world, but I love to focus on youth and children who, as a whole, are far more understanding, open minding, loving, and caring than the adults of the world. So, as it is also Sunday, I am going to focus on this Children's Hymn and remember that Jesus Loves the Children, "Red and Yellow, Black and White" and pray for a world where peace and understanding can win out over evil and hate.
