Falling Down...

David told me this today and it was just too cute not to share! He had just fallen down in the den when he said this:

"Mommy, sometimes when the earth is moving and I am standing still it makes me fall down."

He was as serious as can be!


Joyfully His and theirs!

God speaks through our children...

This afternoon I was a bit tired and really wanted to take a quick power nap, just for 15 minutes or so. The boys were playing in my room and I asked them to please go play in a different room for a few minutes so I could take a short nap. Paul quickly said that he wanted to snuggle with me! So he and I snuggled up in the bed while I attempted to take a power nap with a wiggly little boy...

While we were laying there, Paul snuggled up to me as close as he could get, and said:

"Mommy, you are special."

(a short pause)

"You are special to God."

This brought tears to my eyes, as I felt in my heart the Lord was speaking directly to me through the mouth of my child... how precious is our Lord that He will even use our children to make sure that we know that we are special to Him.


Joyfully His and theirs!

Precious Memories...

I was cleaning out some folders on our desk today and I came across these things the boys had said that I had written down to save, so I thought I would share them here...

David said the following:

"Mommy, I love Paul sooo much!"

(While eating an ice cream sandwich)... "Wow! This is my most favorite dessert in the whole wide world!"

Paul said these:

"Thank you Mommy for cleaning the house so good. It smells good!"

"David, will you come play upstairs with me? I don't want to be lonely."

"I love you like a cookie!"

Have a great day!



Joyfully His and theirs!

Paul's heart...

Tonight as we were headed home from church after the AWANA awards ceremony, during which Paul said the Bible verse that David had practiced to say rather than the one he had practiced to say and he got very upset because he messed up, (did you get that...)

Paul very joyfully says to me from the back of the van...

"Mommy, Jesus touched my heart AND He healed my tummy!"

He had complained earlier of a tummy ache...

I just thought this was such a sweet statement that I had to document it!!

Joyfully His and theirs!
