1. Thank you, Lord, for the kids' inquisitive minds. Their barrage of questions - this week in particular - is really keeping me on my toes. But how thankful I am that they want to learn more about You! Thank you, too, for these wonderful opportunities to share Your glorious truths with them. EDITED TO ADD: We had a big discussion about forgiveness of sin yesterday (including a talk about how baths get the dirt off of us, and that Christ can do the same thing with our sins). Well, this afternoon we had another chat about being "friends" of God, and after more questions, our 5 YO ended up asking Jesus into his heart. What an awesome moment!!

2. Thank you, Lord, for your mercy. I tend to be very quick to judge, and am in awe that YOU, in your perfection, can reach out in love with forgiveness. Oh, to be more like You.

3. Thank you, Lord, for playtime. How wonderful to laugh and be silly!
