Loving Jesus

When we have children we want to teach them about the love of Jesus. This week with Allison has been a little tough of me. Today though once again she stole my heart. As we got home from school she wanted to read all her library books. I told her we had returned them this morning and she had to pick a book from her shelf. She picked one up and said Jesus. I have never heard her say the word "Jesus" We read about baby Jesus. This past week she has been also asking me to pray before I put her down for a nap. I say a little prayer like this,

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
Bless the bed that Allison lies upon
four corners to her bed, four angles around her head,
one to watch, one to pray and two to guide her through the day.

After i said that she said "chlo chlo" I was not sure why she said that because we have not seen Chloe since Sunday. I asked her if she wanted me to pray for Chloe, she said, yes? Chloe is 2 years older then Allison, age doesn't matter to Allison. She adores Chloe. I pray that one day they will be good friends. OK, so what 21 month old asks her Mommy to pray for her daughters little friend? At these times my heart melts and I know the Lord is shining in her little heart. I am so thankful for my little girl. The Lord teaches me so much through her. Now if I can just not worry about life so much I wouldn't stress as a mom so much. Thank you Jesus for my little girl who loves to pray. May she always have a heart for YOU.
