Blessed Sunday

Today, on our way out the door to church, I gave my little man his weekly allowance of $5.  He did a really great job this week taking care of the trash, trashcans and toilet cleaning (love that!)

We sat in church and when the collection baskets were being handed out, my husband went to give the kids their $1/each that they can put in the basket.  We do this as an addition to what we give, but we want the kids to actually participate in the giving and know that our family shares with the church.

My son pulled out his $5 bill and rubbed it gently with both his thumbs.  My husband looked down at the money and then looked at me for an answer.
"Dominic, do you want to give your money?" I asked.

"Well, I can't think of a better way to spend it," he replied, and put it right in the basket.

Cue the Proud Momma music.  How blessed am I to have him for a son?
