Our little copy-cat

Today, while I was driving I was tapping my thumb on the steering wheel to the song that was on the radio. Evan was being super-quiet, which usually means trouble. However, when I turned around to check on him, he had his hands on the sides of his carseat & was very intently watching my thumbs and trying to tap them the same way. I almost started crying. It was adorable. God is amazing in how he teaches little ones, and teaches us about Him in the process. :)

Sweet prayers...

I know, I know- I need to update my blog. I will try to get to it in the next day or two. But, in the mean time-I thought I would share Evan's latest adorable action. At night and at meals, we always pray. Evan just started really paying attention within the last week or so. He started by blinking his eyes while we prayed, but now it has gotten so sweet. After we pray, mainly before bed, I have asked him to say his prayer. He bows his little head, says some random jibberish and then raises his head with a very conclusive, 'Mem-mem'. Obviously we need to work on pronunciation, but that will come. Each time he does it, I give him lots of hugs and tell him how happy Jesus is to hear from him. It is a blessing to experience something so simple and so powerful at the same time.
