A conversation with my 5 year old daughter.

I brought my Christmas music into the van today. I miss it all year round so I start early. I had Sarah McLaughan's album "Wintersong" in the player as we drove to Red Robin for dinner. One of my fav's "Noel" was playing and I turned it real loud - she sings it in such a powerful way. Goldie was upset with Jude because he was howling like a dog. I got upset too so he agreed to be quiet until the song was over. We pulled into Red Robin and I turned the van off. I opened the door to get the kids out and Goldie had been crying. I said "why are you crying?" she said "that was a beautiful song and I really liked it". I said "how did the song make you feel?" She said as she wiped away her tears "I feel happy inside and proud of Jesus".

That was one of the happiest moments of my life.

If I ever aspire to be anything...let it be a mother who teaches her children of God's love and his son, Jesus Christ.

Amen
