I am in my third trimester of pregnancy with our third baby. August is almost four and Clara is almost two. There is a lot going on at our house. The range of thoughts and emotions I have around my children in a day is the FULL spectrum. Amusement over silly things they pick up and repeat(August thanked God for Potiphar last night as I was putting him to sleep - LOL!), exasperation as they throw fits while I'm trying to get them buckled in their carseats and out the door on time, amazement when they look out for each other without my prompting, awe as they sleep peacefully, worry when they fall or get injured, pride when they learn. This week we come across a parable in which Jesus says it's children who will inherit the kingdom of heaven. Children. With their dirty little hands and silly little tantrums. What do we have to learn from children and how can we become more like children in order to draw nearer to the heart of Jesus?
