Proud moment

Often times being a parent is Hard! You feel like you spend all of your time feeding and cleaning them and they still complain and whine. You really wonder when you will have time for the important stuff you should be teaching them when you are just trying to get them to keep things out of their mouths and noses.
Then there are those moments that make your heart swell with pride! And you realize that maybe, just maybe some of the important things are getting through.
I had one of those moments the other day. I was cleaning up the desk in the office/school room. I found this index card.



Hallie got a bracelet for Christmas that has a locket on it. The card with the bracelet says you should write a prayer and place it in the locket. This what Hallie wrote, but she could not fold the index card small enough to go in the locket. I guess we will have to help her with that. I think this prayer from an 8 year old could be one all of us could pray! Just thought I would share. Now I have faces to wash!
