cute things Micah said

We recently just started sponsoring a child from Kenya and we've been explaining what we're doing and who our child, Henry is to Micah. So we've been talking about him a lot lately. Last night I was laying down in bed with Micah and he said: Mommy, should we pray for Henry to have money? I said: Yes Micah, that's a great idea, we should. Do you want to pray? He said yes. So, I waited for him to pray but he was quiet and then said "Mommy, can you pray?" So I said yes and he repeated everything I said. After that, Micah said, Mommy, is Henry not at my house? Since we've been talking about him quite a bit Micah has "talked to him" a few times but realizes that he's not really here and that he lives far away. So, then I told him that he was really sweet and that it pleases Jesus when we pray for others. Then he said, Mommy, can we pray for Indy, cause she doesn't have hands? I kinda laughed and said What do you mean Micah? He said, I don't know. and then was done with the conversation. But it really made me laugh and I just thought it was funny that he was trying to come up with other things to pray for too. All in all, I am so excited that he's concerned for others and is starting to understand that God has blessed us so we can bless others. I love my kiddos, they are so sweet and precious.
