EXPECT THE BEST

A little girl walked daily to and from school. Though the weather this particular morning was questionable andclouds were forming, she made her trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunderand lightning.

The child's mother, concerned that her daughter would be frightenedand possibly harmed by the storm got into her car and drove along theroute to her child's school.

As she did so, she saw her little daughter walking along happily butat each flash of lightning the child would stop, look up, and smile.

Stopping the car, the mother called to the child to get in with her.As they drove toward school, the girl continued to turn toward eachlightning flash and smile.

The Mother asked, "What are you doing?"

The child answered, "Well, I must do this, God keeps taking picturesof me."
