Cotillion...

You turned in the football pads for "itchy" jackets and ties that were "choking" you.

you waited patiently and politely to see if you could "catch one"

You did.

Then you had the news broken to you....
like it or not, you were gonna dance. 1,2,3....1,2,3...
You were gonna hold their little-bitty-white-gloved hands....
and try to look them in the eye...without laughing or counting out loud....

you learned quickly....they smelled good...much better than your friends.

You had to listen to their giggling and act like you know what they are talking about.
(get used to it)

All that you learned and will learn here can not compare to the Wisdom you will learn from God's Word. May you ALWAYS seek it FIRST.

"My son, do not forget my teaching,
but keep my commands in your heart,

for they will prolong your life many years
and bring you prosperity.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.

Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;

In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:1-6

God, Thank You for my precious Godsons. May we all be reminded that we are being watched by little eyes.

In His Dust,

DCC
