Flushed Away

It's never a dull moment lately. Between traveling, house shopping, and work we now have a collection of memorable experiences and funny stories. Something happened today that I couldn't help but want to tell you about it.

So we've been having trouble with one of our toilets at work. No one knew what was wrong with it. When you have that many children using it, there's no telling what's in there. We've already had to give a lesson on the difference between toilet paper and paper towels. Well, the pipes leading to it were clear so there was no choice but to pull up the toilet and investigate further. Now I must admit, it was not I that did this task and I'm grateful for it!

Imagine our surprise when this is what we pulled out of the toilet! An ORANGE! Everyday after school we offer the kids a piece of fruit and apparently one of them wanted to see what would happen if you flushed it!

Hope this gives you a smile and a chance to be grateful that your job is most likely not pulling oranges out of toilets. But for us, it's a small and funny price to pay for seeing God grow and mature these kids .
