A Precious Moment

I just had to get back on here really quick. I didn't want to forget this precious moment I just had with Max.

Michael and Mitchell are out doing some last minute things before we head out in the morning. Max and I stayed here in the room. I was packing up and Max stopped me to lay down with him. Max was ready for bed, so I stopped what I was doing to lay down real quick. We were not even down 5 seconds when Max got up, knelt down, and bowed his head to say his prayers. Oh how happy I was to see that he has already learned to say his prayers!!! I love this boy!!!

That is so precious and something you will never forget. It shows how much he wants to please you and the influence you have over him. I have enjoyed reading the daily updates on Max and I hope you keep the blog up so we know how it is going and know how to pray, God bless
