Why am I amazed...

A couple times this summer our dog has made me realize the amazing creativity of God. Twice he has found an oppossum lurking in our yard and, of course, the oppossum plays dead at the sight of our crazy dog. This causes Boomer to go into a fitful rage of barking. I can understand why Boomer gets nuts over this. It is a very wonderous thing that God design an animal to play dead in the face of fear/or need for survival. I am not kidding -- Boomer was carrying the oppossum around in his mouth and toying with it for a good 20 minutes until we could get Boomer to come in. Both times this has happened the oppossum was gone by morning. God is incredible and creative beyond measure! (no one will ever accuse the oppossum of being cute!)
