I just had to write a quickie here about how one of my "little things" (see post below) happened.
Two days ago I felt prompted to "write notes of encouragement" -- so I went upstairs, dutifully and immediately, to retrieve my box of personal notecards and a pen. I just thought 'once I sit down, I'll know who to write to:' but nothing came to me, so I ditched it.
Then today, without knowing it, this 'notes of encouragement' thing happened afterall. Andrew and I were spending some time together during Luke's nap this morning. And, as we often do, we were doing an "art project." Andrew said he wanted to make something for a friend. So I asked him a series of questions (he was thinking of 2 friends: Alexis and David) and we ended up doing special art projects with special messages for each friend. It was so very sweet. And we will deliver each of them personally. I wrote EXACTLY what he told me to write. (David's said "I like to laugh with you. I'm so glad you're my friend." Alexis' is pictured here.)
Then I logged back onto my blog and thought oh my gosh we wrote notes of encouragement! And I think it was God IN Andrew that led us into fulfilling that prompting in me. How cool is that? I was all ready with my pen and paper but God had some other people in mind...some little people.
