sooo, last night i was putting little miss molly to bed as usual…we have a routine of kissing mommy and cooper (aka = cooper the dooper as molly says)…and then molly and daddy go to “the big girl room” and pray before going to bed…it’s typically daddy asking who we should pray for and then praying…
but a week or so ago molly started to tell daddy that she wanted to pray…only to back out before even starting…until last night…
molly said her first prayer last night…all by herself…
“dear Jesus, i pray for april and alana. ask You, ask You, ask You keep them safe. they go home. pray for jeff. ask You keep him safe. he go home. ok, amen.”
(these are friends of ours from church…they happened to be the last people we said goodbye to, two hours earlier, as we finished up our softball game and they drove off…)
it was awesome…
not only that…molly now has a memory verse that she recites…
galatians 5:13 (said with hand motions that in no way resemble five or thirteen)…mommy and daddy say “serve”…molly says “one another in love”…this is thanks to our children’s ministry at lima community church…miss heidi and miss cindy specifically…not sure how she can say “galatians” and “one another” but can’t say “serve”…but who cares, right!?!
anywhooo…two MAJOR steps taken in molly’s life lately…i had to take the time and share boast…
daddy is…
overcome with price once again!!!
