Another Selah Story...

As we were leaving the YMCA this morning my daughter asked me what we were going to do the rest of the day. I started listing everything off, go home, eat lunch, take a nap, get groceries... but she stopped me at grocery store and said "why?" I replied, "we need food so I can make some meals this weekend so we don't go hungry."

The best part is coming...she is going to melt your heart.

Then she looks at me in the most serious way and tells me this,

"Mom, Jesus will give us food just like he gave that boy more food who had 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread. He just kept making more and more food and handed out food to everyone oh and Jesus ate and ate some too. So we can just ask Jesus for food."

I love knowing that she is learning all these wonderful Bible stories and can recall them all on her own and tell the entire story to me! :) LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!

This mom is PRAISING HIM for such a sweet treat. I pray that God would continue to guide my husband and I in our parenting skills. AMEN!!

What have your kids done or said lately that made you proud?

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way.
