Conversation with God
I walked in the bathroom and found my daughter there. She giggled in an embarrassed way. And said, "Oh, hi mom. I was just talking to God."
I replied,"Oh really? What did He say?"
"He told me to use the potty. That it would be ok."
I was so very delighted to hear this! My son had big issues potty training, and I feel like my daughter has patterned his behavior. Crying, freaking out, not wanting to give up control, etc..... I pray for a lot of things, but I can't say I have ever prayed about potty training. And for the huge stress it can be - I should have been praying. It would be a great story if I could say that she was potty trained from that moment on. The accidents and tears continue. But what a sweet moment it was to know about my daughter's conversation with God. And the reminder it is to me to remember to take everything in prayer to Him.

That is so sweet...I can picture her adorable little face saying that right now. I just love moments like those when you know that they really understand that God is there for them to talk to anytime about anything.
