Love is in the air

My dear Miss Malorie asked about dad's car- "why doesn't it have a stereo in it?"  I explained that a long time ago some mean people stole it and took the stereo and speakers out of it and then a nice policeman found dad's car and gave it back to us...  Malorie was so upset about it, she felt so, so sad that dad had to go without a stereo now.  So she decided to make him a picture to tell him that she loved him and how sorry she felt for him.  She is so genuine and caring- I don't know anyone with more empathy than her.

As I was holding Carson and rocking him before bedtime the other night he said: "Mom... I love you... and I believe in 'Hemly Father and Jesus Christ"  Oh, he melted my heart and spoke to my spirit with those words.  I do believe he has faith-- that faith of a child that I'm supposed to have too.  After that he said "and I say my prayers in the morning and at night, but not at naptime, is that okay?"  The prayer he said while kneeling at his bed after that was so fun to hear:  "Hemly Father, bless Cameron on his mission, bless our food, and bless Hemly and Father...."  The sweet words he was trying to say are so innocent and loving.  I love being a mom to this cuddly little bear.
