    Smilie A good laugh for the day Subject: An Early Mother's Day story.

    We are never as in control as we like to think . . .

    We had this great 10 year old cat named Jack who just recently died. Jack
    was a great cat and the kids would carry him around and sit on him and
    nothing ever bothered him. He used to hang out and nap all day long on this
    mat in our bathroom.

    Well, we have 3 kids and at the time of this story they were 4 years old, 3
    years old and 1 year old. The middle one is Eli. Eli really loves
    Chapstick. LOVES it. He kept asking to use my chapstick and then losing
    it. So finally one day I showed him where in the bathroom I keep my
    Chapstick and how he could use it whenever he wanted to but he needed to put
    it right back in the drawer when he was done.

    Last year on Mother's Day, we were having the typical rush around and try to
    get ready for church with everyone crying and carrying on. My two boys are
    fighting over the toy in the cereal box. I am trying to nurse my little one
    at the same time I am putting on my make-up. Everything is a mess and
    everyone has long forgotten that this is a wonderful day to honor me and the
    amazing job that is motherhood.

    We finally have the older one and the baby loaded in the car and I am
    looking for Eli. I have searched everywhere and I finally round the corner
    to go into the bathroom. And there was Eli. He was applying my Chapstick
    very carefully to Jack's . . . rear end. Eli looked right into my eyes and
    said "chapped." Now if you have a cat, you know that he is right--their
    little rear end do look pretty chapped. And, frankly, Jack didn't seem
    to mind.

    And the only question to really ask at that point was whether it was the
    FIRST time Eli had done that to the cat's behind or the hundredth.

    And THAT is my favorite Mother's Day moment ever because it reminds us that
    no matter how hard we try to civilize these glorious little creatures, there
    will always be that day when you realize they've been using your Chapstick
    on the cat's rear end .
