Tonight during "think before" (that's Levi-speak for "thankful for"), I told the boys they could list one thing they're thankful for. It usually turns in to a five-minute list of everything they can think of or see in front of them (pajamas, curtains, beds, stuffed moose, light, air conditioner, toy car, train, window, etc.). All of those are wonderful things to be thankful for, but I just wasn't in the mood to go through the entire list tonight. I just wanted them to list one thing, and I was sure it would be one of the little toys they were holding.
Levi's one thing tonight: Jesus made the waves stop (we read the story of Jesus calming the storm today)
Caleb's one thing: Jesus died on the cross
These kids amaze me sometimes. Before bed Caleb was telling me how Jesus and God both loved him so much. Then we started talking about how Jesus and God are the same but separate but the same...and then I decided trying to explain the Trinity to a five-year-old might be a little much!
I love them SO much!

What a precious post!
"how Jesus and God are the same but separate but the same..." - perfect example of same same but different. :)
Awesome! Kids are such a huge blessing. I praise God that you and Justin know him and can bring up these precious boys to know His love, too. :-)
