Hannah and Sarah

I have always loved Maelie's heart for the Word of the Lord. It has amazed me from the time she was very young how she memorized and loved the Bible. Lately, it has blessed me so much to watch her learn to apply the stories and lessons from the Bible to her life. My recent favorite is driving in the car the other day, she told me that she thinks we need a baby in our family. She really, really wants one and she wants it to be a brother. I was pretty startled by that and told her that that is something we have to talk to God about for a long time before it happens. She said, "Good idea, Mommy. Hannah talked to God and she got a baby and Sarah talked to God and she got a baby, too. We should definitely talk to God about it."
