Attemped Refuge

Our girls go to a preschool at a church.  Today when I picked them up from school, Catie lagged behind a little as we walked out to our car.  She wasn't much interested in the car ride home, I guess.

She stood watching some people coming in and out of this door to a building I'd never been in before.  I thought she was right behind me, but when I turned to take her hand, she was bolting down the pathway, heading for that door.  She almost made it when I caught her.

As I carried her away crying, some of the people standing around were laughing at us and pointing above our heads.  Puzzled, I glanced up to see the huge lettering above the church doorway Catie almost went through.

It read, "Sanctuary."
