child of God

This is my son. He is 3.
Somedays he surprises me with what he knows.
He tells me when he's frustraited.
He make me have to hid a giggle when he tells me I'm not being kind when I have to disipline him.
He dances unashamed in nothing but his underwear.
He says the Lords prayer every night, and with child faith reminds me how to mean it.
He feels things like love
He delights in the simple
He feels guilt for things, and takes on others pain
He is a person, created by God, in his very image.
And I get to be his mommy
