Whistle While You Work

"It must have been hard for you to learn how to whistle," said Peter, "cuz you weren't allowed to do it in class."

How true!  We certainly were not allowed to practice our whistling skills in class, now were we?
But in homeschool math today, Peter probably learned as much whistling as he did division.
He's getting good, too!  (whistling)

Yesterday he was getting very frustrated and felt defeated about the lack of progress in his whistling.  I suggested he ask for divine assistance through the angels and saints.  After a short pause for prayer, he let out his very first real whistle sound!
God hears all our prayers, and answers them in His time.

Pray for Anna, who was killed in a crosswalk here in Bellingham this afternoon.
Pray for her family who witnessed the accident.  Pray for family, friends, and Godparents who mourn Anna's tragic death.  Pray for the drivers who were involved, and for the emergency response teams and medics.
