early this afternoon, my son excitedly carried to me
on the flat-ish surface of his outstretched hands
his latest lego creation:
*
“who is that
up front?”
i asked,
“the driver?
the papa?”
*
“no,”
he said,
“it’s the mama.
can’t you tell
by the smile
on her face?”
*
my eyes welled up and my heart pounded with joy.
after two days of stomach bug at our house,
i love that my boy thinks of me as the one with the smile.
today, that’s as good as it gets.
Love it! Love you! “only through the mouths of babes” Amy Grant said that in one of her albums when she was sing the very first song she wrote. God’s crazy about you and he will use everything and anything to tell you that over and over again!
