Eight years ago today I was spending the night at the hospital with my new baby. My little Ben! I can't believe that eight years with him have passed by so quickly. He is growing into the sweetest, most kind-hearted and faithful little man. He is a blessing to me every single day.
Just the other morning he didn't feel so good when we left home and I told him to at least go and try school. On the way he wanted to put in a praise and worship CD and we listened to some of our favorite songs. When we pulled into the school parking lot, he said, "Mommy, I feel better now. It was listening to Christian music." I shook my head and murmered a little, "Mhmm" (you know like you do when you are in a hurry). And, he says, "Mommy, God talks to people in a lot of ways. Like the music. He used it to help me get better this morning." In a hurry stopped on a dime. What faith from such a little guy. God may have spoken to Ben through the music, but He spoke to me through Ben. And, He has every day since February 14, 1999. Thank you, God, for my little Ben. He is a true Valentine's gift of love from You!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since his party won't be until Saturday, I took cupcakes to his class at lunch today. he loved the special attention.
After school,we stopped by my parents house so Ben could get a little cake and gift from my parents. Afterwards we headed home so Ben could go to church for RAs.
