Mom vs. the 5 year old.....the Holy Spirit Wins!
Today, the younger children and I attended an African Children's Concert by a group called Watoto from Uganda. After the event, our 5 year old walked toward the CDs, small enough to squeeze between people and snatched one to check it out. There were 2 available and she chose the one with the cover she liked best. It just so happened to be $5 more than the other. I looked at the songs and asked her to please get the other one because there was a song on it they had sang that I liked. She looked at me said, "No, I don't want to get that one." I of course asked why and she said, "because that song made you cry." TRUE! So I tried to explain to her that we need God to break our hearts. TRIED! As you can imagine....we left with the expensive CD and a child who promised to pay me back for it when we got home....*making a mental note to ask about that in the morning. We got home and began her school ...
