Uh-Oh Calico! by Karma Wilson

This board book is one I checked out of the library.  If ever an illustration of the unconditional love God can teach us about through our own parenting experience, this is it!  I am not what you would call a "cat person" but I love this book! Calico is a bit clumsy and a bit messy and she recognizes her imperfection but Mama will "always love" mistakes and all.

How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings. -Psalm 36:7

"...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." - Romans 3:23-24

"For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish buy have eternal life." - John 3:16

Practical fun: when  reading it,  it is fun to have child in lap on floor and at the "uh-oh" part, both of you rock back and raise back up!  (Good for your core, back and abs:)
