back." 

I did not know what she was talking about or who she was talking to. As
I got closer, I looked down at the floor, and much to my surprise, 
there was a whole colony of ants that had invaded her kitchen. I have 
never seen so many ants in all my life. 

I was afraid to ask what I could do because she probably would've told
me. 

I try supporting her for the next hour as she was getting those ants out
of her kitchen. Most of them did not survive. When she was done, I 
thought that would be over, and we could get on with our life. After 
all, an ant is a tiny thing and, to my mind, easily disposed. 

By afternoon, I had forgotten all about that morning incident. 

We went to bed that night, as usual, thinking everything was okay. 

The following morning as I was in the bathroom shaving, I again heard
her screaming, "You're not back again, are you?" 

I had forgotten about yesterday, so I ran out to the kitchen to see what
was going on in the world. 

There at the door, my wife was looking down and yelling and spraying
something, and I noticed it was the ants again. 

"I told you not to come back again!" 

They were back again, and for the next few days, they returned every
morning. Eventually, my wife had her way, and the ants disappeared. I 
have no idea where they went, but I'm hoping they don't come back 
again, or they will be in real trouble. 

During the day, I happened to think of the Bible verse that said, "The
ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the 
summer" (Proverbs 30:25). 

Ants are so little, and yet they can create such a big problem if not
taken care of. Where are the uncles?
