I LOVE her little mind!

We were reading Adi's devotion tonight before bed and the verse that was attached to the devotion was out of Joshua.  We had a great little conversation.  This is mainly for me to remember because I LOVE little moments like this.  Here it is:

A:  Joshua was an Israelite!
Me:  You're right, he was an Israelite.
Me:  Do you remember what Joshua did for the Israelites?
A:  Yes, he helped tear down the wall.
Me:  Where was the wall?
A:  Jericho.
Me:  Did God help him tear down the wall?
A:  No, the screamed really loud and that is how the wall came down.
Me:  Well, you're right they did scream really loud and the wall did come down, but do you know who helped them make that happen?
A:  God!!!

It makes us so happy that Adi is getting to the age where she is thinking for herself and that little bits of what we believe are making their way into her day-to-day thoughts.  Her prayers before meals and at night have been melting my heart.  If all we do is teach our kids to love the Lord with ALL their heart and to show everyone they come into contact with His love - we have done our job!
