Our Special Son

Skye, our dearest son, really surprised me last Friday when we went shopping. 

I was shopping for a backpack for Trinity. She had been wanting one since she kept seeing her brother carrying his. Her new strawberry shortcake bag was so cute that I decided maybe I should get a new one for Skye. Ya, I know, the old one is still working fine, no need for a new one. But I just wanted to give him the option of choosing a character-bag for himself.

Much to my surprise, these were his words: "I don't want. I want to use my bag. When it's old, then I'll buy a new one." Wow!!! 

And when Trinity held up a bob-the-builder bag for him and asked, "Kor kor, for you?" He repeated the same thing. 

Ever since he was young, I knew in my heart, this boy is special. On the outside, he may appear tough or even at times, too aggressive. But I know, God has given him a special purpose. It is my job, as a parent to use whatever abilities and talents God has given him to equip him in his calling, and to help mold all the seemingly bad traits into godly character traits that God can use for His Kingdom. I believe, definitely, that Skye's passionate character will develop in him a heart of worship for our true God and his aggressiveness will be essential in the calling for claiming lost grounds for God!
