So yesterday I read Cameron a bedtime story about Jesus. At the end it says that He promised to come back some day as a King. This is the conversation that followed:
Cameron: "Where will He go when He comes back?"
Stacy: "I'm not sure exactly, but my guess would be the temple."
Cameron: "We should go there and wait for Him."
Stacy: "Well, we could, but we don't know when He is coming."
Cameron: "What's His cell phone number? We should call Him and ask Him."
I thought it was so cute. I love to watch the simple faith of my child grow. Another experience we had this week was on Monday night. We went to temple square for family home evening and while we were sitting in front of the Christus statue in the visitors center, Cameron turned to me and with a whisper and very solemn eyes asked as he pointed to the ceiling, "Mommy, is that Heaven?" It's times like this that remind me how rewarding motherhood can be. I'm so grateful for the opportunity I have to be a mother. I know that not all women have this opportunity, and even for me, it has been a struggle to get there, but I'm so grateful for the precious moments that I have with Cameron. What a joy he is.
