How many times have you listened in to your kid's playtime? Or have you been holding a conversation only to have your little one pipe up something of such profound insight that you wonder which college will want them first?
Well, it's amazing what terms our children pick up and use against us! Now before I go any further let me just say that we are a Christian family. We strive to live our lives as Christ tells us in his word. (for more info on that topic please visit www.family.org)
Anyway, like many people, especially adults, we sometimes let worries and anxieties get the better of us. Well, my DH and I were trying to figure out some important future plans. Obviously we were not keeping our conversation private by speaking in the car. Our 4 year old DD decided to pipe up and remind us that we need to be thankful no matter where we were or what we were doing. How in the world did our 4 year old become a voice of reason. I think it's amazing when God uses the smallest voices for the biggest points.
How many times do we question ourselves only to look in our child's eyes and know everything will work out just fine? Or how many times have you been about to blow your stack and they smile and say, "I love you mommy" or "you're the greatest mommy in the whole world!" It always seems to be just enough to make you melt or forget your troubles for just a second. I think that is a way that God sends his peace that passes all understanding. Well, I hope this finds you all healthy and happy. Especially if your kids are saying something profound!
In his Name,
Lisa
