What Big Eyes She Has!

Prayers from Handsome

After Grandma and Papa left for Chicago last week Sweet Pea (and I) cried and cried. (I had told her we couldn't cry in anticipation of their leaving because that would waste the sweet time we had left with them. I promised her she and I would have a good cry together after they were gone. As soon as the door shut after our good-byes, she held me to the "good cry" promise.) We finally dried our tears and joined the rest of the family. As soon as she sat down, Sweet Pea started crying again. Handsome ran up to me and said, "Mama, we need to pray for Sweet Pea QUICKLY!" I agreed and asked him to pray. And pray my little man of faith did!
"Dear God, Thank you that Sweet Pea stop crying. Thank you that Bama come back tomorrow. Amen."

A few days later Handsome was loving on Little Lamb and saw the hemangioma on her head. He told me he would pray for her booboo. "Dear God, Thank you that Little Lamb's booboo go away. Thank you that You keep her safe from tigers. Thank you for elephants. Amen."

The REAL Question

Handsome: Why baby come out of mommy's tummy?
Me: Because God said it was time for the baby to come out.
Sweet Pea: The real question is: How did the baby GET INTO mommy's tummy?
