gratitude
My kids are such wonderful reminders to me of how to be grateful. John was praying last night and took time to make specific mention of how he was thankful for the suckers we got at the bank..."a strawberry one for me and a bubble gum one for emily"... and requested that we get to go there again soon for more suckers. Come to think of it, that prayer was answered because today I had to go again for something else. I wonder if tonight he'll be thankful for "the tangerine sucker for me and the cherry sucker for emily." Note to self: it never hurts to be more specific in prayers. :)

That is so cute! What a great lesson to us all. There are so many of those kind of lessons you learn from your kids. I can totally see why we are told be as little children. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAdorable. I can hear John saying that in my head. I miss getting to spend time with him.
ReplyDeleteFaith moves mountains - and takes your mom to the bank!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great prayer. My daughter prayed the other night that "mommy will give me a treat, and only me".
