Today may be one of the three best days of my life. We are on vacation but that's not why. Dave and I got to have one of the best conversations with Ella today. I will never forget this moment. It went something like this.
Daddy those girls in my book are mean
Oh really Ella, why are they mean
Because they don't have Jesus in their heart
How do you know they don't have Jesus in their heart
Because they are mean daddy
Mommy, I told Daddy that the girls in my book are mean because they don't have Jesus in their heart
That's right Ella
Do I have Jesus in my heart mommy
Well, Ella you have to ask Jesus to come and live in your heart, is that something that you want to do
Yea
All you have to do is ask Jesus to come and live in your heart and he will
Then I will be good
Well, Ella, you are already so good but Jesus will come and live in your heart and help you be even better
Okay mommy
At this point in time I sent her to Dave since this is his speciality but I stood in the doorway and listened to their conversation...
So, Ella you know that Jesus loves you
Yes Daddy
And you know he loved you so much that he died for you and he wants to live in your heart forever
Yes Daddy and he will make me a better person
Okay Ella well the Bible says you have to ask Jesus to come into your heart so I am going to pray and you need to repeat after me okay.
Okay
Dear Jesus
I love you
Thank you for loving me
I am sorry for the times I am bad
Please come into my heart and live
Help me to be a better girl
I love you
Amen
Ella: Now Jesus lives in my heart daddy?
Yea Ella
Mommy guess what
what Ella
Jesus lives in my heart!

and then we threw a party and called all the grandma's and grandpa's and mimi's and uncle david's and told them that Jesus now lived in Ella's heart

Oh man, I love this girl so much. my heart has been so blessed today to know that Ella's name is written on God's book of life. He has big plans for her life. way bigger than we could ever dream. I am so blessed to walk through this world with her. Thank you Jesus for dying for my daughter. I love you so much

Life has been crazy busy lately. But I am loving every minute of this craziness with my girls! God has blessed me so much.

I am pushing to become and example for others to follow. More so I am pushing to become an example that I want my girls to follow. I want to stand before them as they grow up and say come and follow me as I follow Christ. I want them to see and grow up with a mom that is crazy in love with Jesus. I want them to want what I have for themselves. I want to inspire them.

Father make me someone that my girls can follow. Give me peace, and patience, give me a gentle spirit. May my words be uplifting and pleasing to you in every way. Thank you for my family, I am so blessed. Use me to change them. Use them to grow me. 

I love you
