The sweetest thing..

We are so touched to hear Pace pray lately. He is filled with such conviction when he prays. Last night at dinner, he almost brought tears to our eyes as he prayed "God, thank you so much for each of the children in our family, and thank you so much for this wonderful food mommy made, and thank you so much for this whole world and everyone in it. God, thank you so much for having Jesus die on the cross for our sins, and God thank you so much for this whole family that I love". I am not adding a thing, does it get any more pure and from the heart? Two nights ago, the same day I heard the news on our ultrasound he prayed this "dear God, thank you so much for the baby you put in mommy's tummy, and God thank you so much for helping it grow...." we hadnt told him a thing about the ultrasound and hadn't talked about the baby in a few days. But God sure showed us his face that night through our first born, the first child he entrusted to our care. Some people work so hard to get sales awards, some work to buy that new BMW, others that second home. Me, Trent, we as a family are working so hard to have children that love and serve God. This prayer we heard, and this conviction, so pure and sweet, was the greatest reward ever! Thank you God for giving us such amazing children, incredible direction in how to grow them, and such unwavering love in our lives!
