Once when we were up North, Bethany and Rachel(cousins that look like twins and are great friends....most of the time) decided to go for a swim....the target was a little island. The problem was it was later in the day, and the island was a mile away!!!
Well, the girl's started out (and yes, they did have life-preservers on)on their journey. It started out well, but I was a little uneasy because I knew the island looked closer than it was, and I didn't want the girl's swimming at dusk and having a speed boat run them over (see how a mother's mind works????)
Wellllll.... the girl's finally arrived at the island. I could hear Rachel yelling at Bethany about how much she hated her and how she was going to kill her for making her swim!
I just wanted them to start coming back, but rachel got a little sick... after she was done puking, they eventually jumped back in the water, and started swimming to the beach where we were all waiting. The girl's finally made it back to land and all the way Rachel was saying how much she hated her and would kill her! I would say it was a good thing they were so exhausted when they got back, otherwise it wouldn't have been pretty!
After they got their second wind back they were once again best friends...and they managed to stay up for cards AND a bonfire!!!
James 1:3-4 " whenever trials come your way, let it be an opportunity for joy. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything"
Good job, girls!!!! You did it!!!!!
will you do it again????
