Asher was drawing people the other day, and he drew a picture of Brian. Then he drew a big heart on his chest and said, “See Mommy, I drew Daddy’s heart. It’s so big because he loves me so much.” Sweet boy.

I was up with her, standing and swaying, and trying to calm her down. I heard someone talking behind me & turned around. There was Asher lying on the daybed in her room, eyes shut, hands folded, praying for Audrey to “go to sleep quickly so that she could grow up to be healthy and 4 1/2.” It was so sweet! Then when she calmed down and I could put her back in bed, Asher said to me, “Look Mommy, God is already working in her heart.”

When tucking him in one afternoon, Micah looked me intensely and said, “Mommy, my bed is a rocket ship! I am going to fly to the moon and take my nap.” So I told him, “Okay!”, tucked him in and left him. A while later I heard thumping and went to check on him. There he sat in the middle of his room and when he saw me, he quickly jumped back into his rocket ship saying, “I had to make sure the moon was safe.”

I’ll put it back on my hand and it will be all better.” Oh, to be in his mind for 2 seconds!
