Ponderings

This evening Ahren asked me 'what's for dinner?'  A common question for my hungry and growing 6 year old boy.

My answer was 'pork and potatoes'.

"Sounds good, mom" said Ahren.

(I love it when I receive a reply that doesn't resemble groaning or complaining about what I'm fixing for dinner).

"How did you get so sweet, son?" I asked.

"Because I love you, mom" replied the boy.

my heart melts here...


Then I began to wonder if him loving me really makes him sweeter.  Probably not.  But I wonder if loving God makes us sweeter.  How can it not?

Just some food for thought - pun intended!
