This morning as Wyatt and I were eating breakfast, he asked me what we were going to do today. I told him we had Bible Study this morning and then we were going to the park with all the kids from Bible Study to play and have lunch.
Usually the conversation ends there and I assume he begins thinking about seeing the kids at Bible Study. But today, he asked me, "What do you do at Bible Study Mom?" I didn't give it much thought and just said, "I learn about Jesus."
Wyatt then looked at me and said, "That will make you better, won't it Mommy?"
I was so taken back and looked at him and said, "Yes it will. Where did you hear that Wyatt?" I was so amazed that he said this and I was wondering where he learned this. He didn't really understand, in his little 2-year old mind, what I was trying to get it. But then he said, "I learn about Jesus in Sunday School too, Mommy, and He's going to make me better."
It was so precious to me and was such a great reminder that everything I do as a mother has an effect on my kids. I am so thankful for the people who serve in the children's ministry at church and for the impact they have on our kids' impressionable minds. But most of all, I am thankful for Christ and that He does 'make us better' as Wyatt put it.

Kris, it's those precious moments that make the day so special and bring you back to why you spend your entire day with your kids. The days may get long, but when you experience comments like this from those you love the most, it makes everything you do worthwhile. Love, MOM
What a precious boy!!!
