Proud Mommy

My husband and I have the scripture 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 in a decorative frame on our wall.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight it evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."

This has been on our wall since we were first married, but our sweet baby boy just noticed it the other day. He pointed to it, so I read it to him. As I finished, he clapped his hands in the prayer sign. So, crying of course, we prayed for God to show us how to love as his Word tells us to love. It was one of the most tender, sweet moments in my mommy life. He did the same thing again tonight. I am constantly amazed at how much he seems to understand already at only 15 months old. His sweet little personality is shaping a little more each day, and as it does I think I'm seeing that he will be blessed with a tender spirit. This makes me a proud mommy.
