Samuel

The other morning i was sitting on my swing drinking my coffee, and reading my bible. MY FAVORITE PLACE.
I began to read about Samuel, Samuel the son of Hannah that is. Let me tell you it really blessed my heart. It painted a picture for me just how dear my Samuel is. I wanted him. I asked God for him. My heart yearned for a baby and God gave me Samuel. He really is sunshine to me. Samuel has a very tender heart. He loves with his whole heart, and is excited about some fun things.
After i finished reading and thanking God again for my sweet blessing in Samuel, i went in the house. He as coming down the stairs and i took him in my arms and told him i loved him, and what a blessing he was, and that I had asked God for him and he gave me a precious gift in him. In his 8 year old way he said... "Mom you ok?" i had to laugh, and then he told me he loved me too.
My children are such gifts... from Leila's outstanding knowledge, and crooked little smile, to Alaina's giggle of joy, and Samuel's sweet gentle spirit. Thank you Jesus for my kids.
