Puzzle Problems Excerpt:



Patrick knew days like this very well. These were puzzle days. When the weather was cold and blustery, the kids liked to stay inside where it was warm. They wore soft sweaters and fuzzy socks. They drank hot cocoa and curled up on the floor closer to the heater. And on days like this, the kids would choose something quiet and cozy to do together. Like a puzzle.



There was just one problem. Patrick the Puzzle was missing a piece.

Today’s Meditation: Picture floating in the safe and comforting waters of a tranquil pool.
