Dear sweet thoughtful child…
The Howard family blog rang on my thoughtful meter today and I thought I would share this sweet story with you all. I think its absolutely beautiful how sweet and thoughtful a child can be without even knowing.
“”Our sweet 5 year old.
We did some singing before bed tonight, starting with a few that he knew from Sunday school, and ending with Jesus Loves Me. As we sang, “Jesus loves me, this I know” he interjected with a contended sigh, “This is the best song ever.”
As I scratched his back (a nightly ritual since he’s been about 3 years old- sorry to whoever his future wife is :)), I got up to leave, and he asked for the first time in 2 years, “Do you want me to scratch YOUR back, Mom?”"”
His blanket would read:
Side 1: Noah Howard
Side 2: Jesus loves me this I know
Side 3: From his shining throne on High
Side 4: Comes to watch me where I lie
