For the life of me, I could not find our destination today. It was a birthday party and if I did not give her a promised slice of cake, I’d never hear the end of it. I kept trying to tell her we celebrate birthdays to make that person feel special, not to eat cake. However, that is a nice bonus!
She could see I was a bit flustered driving, and she said, “Mommy, now, take a breath and ask Jesus to help you.” Brilliant. My kid is brilliant. Where did she get this piece of advice!? Isn’t it amazing when our child gives us back what we give them? And, it’s so simple full of child-like faith. Just like Jesus modeled and shared. Upon my breath and short prayer, she said, “Now, mommy, don’t you feel better!?” As a matter of fact I did. I felt even better knowing my daughter is full of wisdom.
Happy 3rd Birthday Avery! You have a fellow Thomas lover in Tatum!
