Must Read: Shirley & Marcy
A mom was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school.
He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the
feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe.
So she had an idea of how to handle it. She asked a neighbor if she
would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a
distance, so he probably wouldn't notice her.
She said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would
be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed.
The next school day, the neighbor and her little girl set out following
behind Timmy as he walked to school with another neighbor girl he knew.
She did this for the whole week.
As the two walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs, Timmy's little
friend noticed the same lady was following them as she seemed to do
every day all week. Finallyshe said to Timmy, 'Have you noticed that
lady following us to school all week?
Do you know her?'
Timmy nonchalantly replied,
'Yeah, I know who she is.'
The little girl said, 'Well, who is she?'
'That's just Shirley Goodness,' Timmy replied, 'and her daughter
Marcy.'
'Shirley Goodness? Who the heck is she and why is she following us? '
'Well,' Timmy explained, 'every night my Mom makes me say the 23rd
Psalm with my prayers, 'cuz she worries about me so much.
And in the Psalm, it says, 'Shirley Goodness and Marcy shall follow
me all the days of my life', so I guess I'll just have to get used to
it!'
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face to shine upon
you, and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift His countenance upon
you,and give you peace.
May Shirley Goodness and Marcy be with you today and always.
I know you smiled!
I sure did, Pass this on and brighten someone's day!
