Thank You Mommy

In our family, we do our scripture study in the morning. In the evening we sing "Tell Me the Stories of Jesus," and then follow that song by showing a picture and telling a story of the life of our Savior. Last night we talked about the story of The 10 Lepers. We talked about how sad it was that of 10 Lepers who were healed, only 1 of them said thank you to Jesus. Alex sat thoughtfully for a minute. He then looked up and said, 

"Mommy. I wanted to tell you something."

What did you want to tell me Alex?

"I wanted to say thank you so much for hanging my clock up for me today. Thank you so much Mommy."

Earlier that day during dinner . . . . Alex had been sick and had no appetite all day. Dinner rolled around and I made eggs and pancakes. He was starving. With a mouth full of eggs, he said, "Mommy, thank you so much for this beautiful dinner. Thank you so much Mommy."

I am grateful for my grateful boy.
