The Testimony of a Child

Ryan got into a clean mode on Saturday and so we did some spring cleaning in the Toy room and Teancum's room. We rotated toys and mixed things up in the toy room. Ryan even put the poster of the Savior back up in Teancum's room. Well monday morning Teancum got up bright eyed and bushy tailed and called me to his room. Instead of his usual request for me to look at his clock however he simply said in his most excited voice "Jesus!" I looked and sure enough there was the poster on his door at eye level. I confirmed what he saw to which he responded, "I missed him," then "Jesus loves me!" I couldn't resist giving him a big hug and he brought a tear to my eye when he said "Jesus love you." Thank you Teancum for reminding me about where we came from and who we are.

What a kid you've got there! I bet that had to make you feel just about like a million dollars! Isn't it amazing how children can say things that just go straight to your heart? Yay for Teancum!

I often wonder if kids really do know a lot more than we think. It just melted my heart when Ashlee would tell me, "Jesus loves me," sometimes at night before going to bed. She has stopped saying that, but she still says things sometimes that make me wonder. Oh, I love kids and their innocence!
