The Sweetest Things!

Sometimes the sweetest things happen when you least expect them. Kaitlyn is by the the hardest of our children to get to stay in the bed. We are constantly threatening her with "whatever it takes" to keep her in her room after we say prayers. Last night was no different. She kept hollering..."daddy I need you." I would of course tell her to "GET IN THAT BED AND HUSH." After about the third time of that she begins bawling. Steph finally tells me to go see what the heck the deal is. So I head off to the room and on her magnetic drawing board I find this.
I was totally blown away. You see some of the sweetest things in life happen when we all least expect them. Kaitlyn had worked so hard on writing that for me that she was simply devastated when I wouldn't come look. Of course we snuggled up after that and all was well. I even left her a note with the magnetic board at her table spot this morning. I am thankful for my family and children. They are a great gift! I am excited about more of these sweetest things in the future!
