I will be the first one to tell you that there are hard days being a mom. There are days where my kids seem a little too whiny, a little too chatty, and a lot too needy.
But then there are the amazing moments that remind me that they are little people that God has amazing plans for. Moments that make me pause and thank Jesus for His compassion and love for even the youngest ones.
One of these moments I happened to overhear last week. Riley has begun to read and has realized he can also read some out of his Bible. So, on this particular afternoon he asked Mary Kenzie if she would like for him to read out of his Bible to her. She said yes and they proceeded to snuggle up in the couch while he read to her out of Genesis.
Eventually, Mary Kenzie got a little bored being read to by a beginning reader so she got up to look at a book on her own. Riley was quick to inform her that this is God's true word and it's really important to read it. Mary Kenzie told him she knew that it is God's holy word but she wanted to look at another book for a few minutes!
