A couple of weeks ago at church, the kids were talking about what name they think describes God or Jesus best. They were given the obvious examples (Father, Savior, King, etc...) and asked to pick the name that they liked best for God.
Their answers really surprised me, and just seemed so unbelievebly intimate....
Reeves chose "Daddy" and Lucy chose "Mother"
Only a child can choose a name for God that is so fitting for what He is in our lives. I am just so humbled that maybe she sees God for what I am for her:
Provider, Comforter, Protector, Boo-boo healer, Compassionate, Forgiving, Loving (I'm trying to forget about the awful things I can be sometimes).
Sometimes, they just melt my heart!

At least Lucy thinks I'm living in God's image!

He's our all boy, athletic, Daddy loving, amazingly messy, school adoring, people pleasing, ultra sensitive, fruit craving, mercifully giving, bed hopping, dangerously destructive, absolutely precious first born.
She's our extremely funny, big hearted, completely dramatic, very talkative, nurturing, terribly sassy, independent, fashion forward, chocolate craving, brown eyed, Mommy helping, sorta sneaky, beautifully stunning second born!
