The best Father's Day gift EVER!

No, it was actually not this slideshow I made with pictures and music that support the fact that Tripp is in deed, the most awesome dad!

The best father's day gift ever, is one of our children asking Jesus into his heart! It was Casey! Tonight as he said his bedtime prayers, his prayer was particularly "grown up". It wasn't the usual reportoire that he recites. But actually an original heartfelt prayer for people who don't the Lord to start going to church so that they can know Him. Even Ryan commented that Casey's prayer sounded like such a big boy prayer.

So I said, "that sounds like the prayer of someone who has Jesus in his heart."

Casey grinned big at me.

I asked him, "do you want to have Jesus in your heart someday?"

He said, "yeah".

I asked him, "why?"

"Because I love Him so much."

I told him that someday when he's sure he's ready, he can pray and ask Jesus to come into his heart.

He said, "I want to do it now!"

So I called Tripp over, who was sitting on Ryan's bed tucking him in.

"We have a situation", I said.

Tripp talked to Casey about what Jesus did for us and explained what it means to have Jesus in your heart. I know we gave him information overload, but we were so excited that he was ready to make this decision and wanted to make sure that he understood what he was about to do.

Tripp prayed and Casey repeated him, very clearly and confidently.

There was a party in Heaven tonight and I'm sure that my mom and Gram were heading up the celebration!
