My son Noah is the sweetest little guy ever! He is always loving and wanting to take the time to help others. He is so smart and picks up on everything so fast! He amazes us in so many ways. We send Noah to a private Catholic School and recently we have been trying to teach him how to take his time and pray to God instead of rushing.
Just yesterday at lunch time Noah asked "Mommy can I say the prayer today?"
He went on to tell me that he had some "pretty" important things that
he needed to say to God.
Noah started his prayer off by saying "Dear Heavenly Father, please take care
of my Nana's brother who is very sick and needs your care to get better soon. Please take
care of me and all my brothers, Dominic, Tyler, Tyson and Blake.
Bless my Mommy and Daddy. Help Daddy get home safe from work. Oh and I almost forgot
please be with my Nana and Pop too! Amen."
I thought that it was the cutest prayer that I had ever heard from Noah. Usually he just says
thank you for this food, Amen. It was sweet to hear how he showed such concern
for others in our family. My Uncle was diagnosed with cancer just
three months ago and the cancer had spread throughout his body so there
was no hope for surgery to remove the cancer.
We have been praying for him since the news. We never even knew
that Noah was aware my Uncle's situation. I guess he must have
over heard us. It was nice to see how much he cared though.
On a funny note. My birthday is coming up on Sunday. Noah has been very excited
about my big day! I must say I'm not as excited! We were
at Kmart the other day and we were walking through the Christmas aisle.
Noah says to me "Mommy I haven't bought your present yet for your birthday. Then he
picked up an ornament showed it to me and said Mommy if you want this I'll
buy it for you for your birthday! I'll buy anything you want in here you just pick.
I smiled at him kissed him on the check and stated Noah your such a sweet boy to think of Mommy like that.
I asked him where he got all his money. He laughed and said well Mommy I don't have any but
I'm pretty sure you do. Isn't it in your wallet? You should look. A young girl next to us heard our conversation and said to Noah that he was very sweet for wanting to get his Mommy something. She asked him if he had saved his money for the gift. He replied no, my Mommy has some. Then he said but if she doesn't then I'll tell my Pop and Nana and they will buy it
for her. She smiled at him and looked at me and said he's pretty spoiled by them isn't he.
I replied very!!! My parents both thought that it was cute how he had volunteered them
for payment.
So tonight my Father took Noah to the store to purchase me a present.
My Father calls and says to me Amanda, you have to hear what your son just said.
I knew it had to be funny or I wouldn't have received the phone call. My dad said that
they were at the store and Noah had found a shirt that he said his Mommy
just had to have for her birthday. So my dad said well what size does your
Mommy wear? He said Noah paused then looked up at him and said well Pup I'm four and I wear a 4t so how old is my Mommy? So my dad not even remembering how old I am says to my son well your mom is going to be 26. BTW, I'm turning 28! So Noah says well my
Mommy she wears a size 26 then. My dad laughed and said why don't you call
your Mommy and tell her that. I in return informed them that I guess I must
wear a 28 then because they were a little off on my age.
I thought it was pretty cute that he thinks that your size depends on your age!
Just thought I would share that cute little story with you all.
May God Bless each and every one of you this Christmas!
Remember Jesus is the Reason for the Season!
