I Must Have A 1,000 Hearts
I absolutely love when my boys say something that will forever be engrained in my mind.
Tonight on the way home from Mickey D's, Luke my 4 year old says, "Dad, I want to tell you something funny about my body." I thought this was an interesting lead in comment...I was intreagued. "I must have a 1,000 hearts." Interesting, I thought, "Why do you say that?" He answered, "Because that's how many hearts it would take to hold the love of God that I have."
I smiled and was extremely proud of the depth of love my sons have for their Father.

Love that!!! My 5 yr old has a "heart thing" going on right now too... The other day he asked, "Mom, why did God give Cameryn a singing heart?" (Cameryn is my 3 yr old and she loves to sing praises all day long.) I told him because God knew she would love to sing. I then asked Cal what kind of heart God gave to him and he said, "a heart that likes to play with my friends." We then proceeded to evaluate the types of hearts the rest of our friends and family have and I realized that Cal could determine the character of a person even at his young age. I, too often underestimate the level of understanding my kids have of life.
Thanks for sharing that great moment.
How is Nate's hair doing?
