Working, Worrying, Wogging - and Remembering God

Working, Worrying, Wogging ... Remembering God
   
 For the Body:

Lately another sixty-ish grandmother came in and  expressed a concern that I'd heard many times the last ten years.  "My daughter-in-law is so busy she feeds her kids at McDonald's or Sonic so much.  Or they have frozen pizza, macaroni and cheese, or just cereal. I worry about the grandkids. 

They all weigh more than I remember my kids weighing."To some extent I was a mother like that. Working, overwhelmed, and willing to close my eyes and reach for compromising solutions. I cannot count the times I drove through fast food places to either feed the kids fast or cheaply or both.
