We have spent A LOT of time and energy making sure our kids are good sharers. We have tried to teach them that everything we have really belongs to God and that because it is a blessing to have lots of clothes, food and toys, that we should share everything we have. Well, I think maybe Lillie has taken this sharing thing to a new level, one that would make Jesus chuckle.
While taking Lillie and Jovey to go potty at lunch, Jovey looked down and saw that Lillie had Zoe underwear. In her excitement, she pulled down her shorts to unveil Dora underwear! Well, the next I know I hear Jovey proclaiming "Lillie!!!You have Zoe!!!!!!!!Let's share!!!" and Lillie yelling, "Share Dora and Zoe..pleaseeee!!!" and VERY enthusiastically trying to pull hers off to "make a trade."
Okay, so on the running list of nonsharing items are toothbrushes, lollipops, icecream cones and now undies...
Thank you Lord for my sweet natured kids and their generous spirits even at this young age. Please continue to grow them and teach them to be more like You. And me too as I am in need of their selflessness as well. AMEN

Could our girls be any sweeter? I love it that we can learn so much from the blessings that God sent to us to teach and bring up in his Love! How amazing and what a treasure to share in such a lofty task with such a beautiful person!
