AUNT ESTHER

They just understand each other, “Aunt” Esther and the babies.  They hold quiet communion with each other in the back of the chapel every Sunday morning.    

When my twins were little, I always looked forward to the peace and quiet I would have when they would find “Aunt” Esther.  Oh, the wonders they would find in her bag of stuff…books, toys and a million other things to keep them busy and quiet until, inevitably they would fall asleep half-way through the meeting, sprawled across “Aunt” Esther’s lap.    

I wonder how many of our corp’s little ones have learned how to fold their hands and close their eyes, “shhhh, it’s time to pray….” from the vantage point of “Aunt” Esther’s lap…..    

I wonder….
