This is Callie during our Wednesday night dinner last week. Right now she copies everything she sees. Because Emily has really been about taking care of her dolls, so has Callie. The way we sit or move or even talk can quickly become something Callie tries to do. Her speech is really improving and I can tell she is just about to really start talking a lot more.
As I think about how much she copies what she sees, I can't help but wonder what it would look like if we as Christians did the same thing? If we copied the life of Jesus I would dare say we would be in a much better state than we are currently. As a parent, I see the world through a whole new lens. Jesus was exactly right in using the faith of little children to describe how we must approach salvation.
I love my girls and this once again reminds me how important my job is as a parent. They quickly pick up on my bad and good habits. I just have to make sure there are more good than bad ones to copy.
