I just had one of those mama moments that will stay with me a long time. I was cleaning the house and Ty was outside playing. I hadn’t heard a peep from him so I left my bedroom and decided to head out back to check on him. (I have windows to the back so I can see from almost every angle EXCEPT when he is on the side of the house where he was).
Anyhow, when I walked into our family room I saw Ty running into the house TOTALLY excited. His eyes were huge and he was shaking his head and clapping! Then I realized. The Go Fish version of Jesus Loves Me (awesome version) had just come on the CD player and I was blasting it so he could hear it outside.
I was nearly in tears because Ty was so excited by this song that he started yelling “Yes! Yes! Yes!” with the song and just ran circles around the couch with his hands in the air. I wish you could have seen it. He was smiling and for this moment it looked to me like Ty had a glimpse of heaven that I couldn’t see. He looked like a person caught up in a precious moment of worship. It was more than just loving a song. I can’t explain it to you. It moved him. How does a song move a 2 year old? I just know what I saw. When the song was over he walked back outside. My practical mind say’s he doesn’t understand what he is trying to sing and he just “happens” to love that song more than any other but there is another side of me that wonders if Ty’s heart understands more than I think. What a moment. Yes Ty – Jesus DOES love you and I think you know it!

I can just picture him praising the Lord! He is such a doll, and if you think it blessed your heart, just think what praise God received!!!!
AUNT BECK IS SOOO RIGHT! i’m certain God was dancing with joy right back over that boy. 🙂 how precious! (by the way, doni, i think you have a charismatic on your hands.) 😉
reminds me of my sweet moment with seth wanting to hear about how Jesus was born and how he’s “not born anymore – he’s WIVE!!!!: oh i love it when the Lord does these things and gives us glimpses into His drawing them while they are young. Thank you Lord!
Lost for words on that one. How sweet and pure. There is no question in my mind that you and Jim are doing a completely awesome job in not only raising these two little boys but also installing into them the most precious teachings that will carry them through the rest of their life’s. As far as one of never forgettable moments……….
they are few and far between, cherish them forever.
Doni do you remember when I told about the dream that Rachel had about Jacob??? It still gives me chills.
Wow what a beautiful moment to have seen. That brings tears to my eyes. Ty knows Jesus loves him, he was carried by him for 81 days and then some. You and Jim are wonderful parents to Ty and these moments really let “YOU” see that. Great Job Mommy.
Also Hi Susie…its been awhile how have you been. And how about you tell us the dream or if its to personal just say so.
Love always ~Shayla~
