"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Matthew 19:14The other day Annessa and I were at McDonald's (I know, not the most healthy choice, but what am I supposed to do with an almost-3-year-old after 3 straight days of rain? Oh, and did I mention we live an an APARTMENT so there is no basement to send her to so she can run off her energy...)
ANYWAY, back to McDonald's. Annessa had just finished her chicken nuggets and fries so I told her she could go play in the playland (hey, I least I insist that she eats the junk BEFORE she plays...). ANYWAY, back to my story.
I'm sitting at a table, talking to a friend when I hear Annessa talking to a little boy. "Do you go to church?" She asks as they trade happymeal toys (side note: nice sharing Ness!)
"No," says the boy.
"I go to church. I learn about Jesus. You can learn about Jesus too."
Are you kidding me??? Did my little almost-3-year-old just MINISTER to a little boy at McDonald's??! Amazing. Maybe if we could all be like kids, life on earth would be sweeter.
Oh, and God, if you could help me make the switch from fries to apple slices, that would be great....
So sweet! What an awesome example you are setting for her! Good luck with the fries vs.apple slices :)
ReplyDeleteIt's quite the parenting compliment! Just think Aut, it's all because of you and Rich! Great job. A proud moment always out-weighs the naughty ones:)
