Lessons From the Little Ones

we have been blessed to become a part of our community, our home church. we have made real friends that i know i can call for anything. we've made freindships encurage and uplift us. we have been on a mission to find a family verse tath our family can strive to become and we have finally found one.
thessalionians 5:16-18
rejoice always, pray continuously, give htanks in all cicumstances; for this is god's will for you in Christ Jesus.

ely has been able to be a part of a sunday school as well. mrs. claudia comes every week, faithfully, and teaches ely and malachi. this week ely learned her first memory verse and she has put us to shame applying it to her life. preston and ely were driving after church and ely saw a car with 2 lakers flags. here's the conversation:
ely: what is that on the car?
daddy: they're lakers flags.
ely: do we like the lakers?
daddy: well, uncle zac likes the celtics and not the lakers, but daddy doesn't really like anyone.
ely: you should.
daddy: should what?
ely: like everyone. the bible says you should "love one another."

preston and i are so proud of the loving and considerate little girl she is and the amazing caring person she is becoming.

I am so glad I swallowed before I read the punchline, spitting out tea on the library keyboard would not have gone over well.
