Thanks to all the moms who allowed me to include their children's quotes in Heart to Heart!
 

I had an atlas, you know the paper type, out today and was looking over states and different routes to take. Eva (8) and Mia (6) came over to where I was and Eva proceeded to explain to Mia that, "back in the old days people had to use maps on paper instead of their phone's GPS, whenever they wanted to travel." She then said, "Were you alive during that time, Mommy?"
Yes, kid, I was!! ~ Elizabeth in Virginia

 

Conversation talking about original sin.  Wes (Daddy) asks if there are any questions.
Malakai (7): "Which one is heavier?  A double decker bus or 18 wheeler?" ~ Danielle in Alabama

 

Last night, my mom tucked Samara (5) into bed, since her flight to go back east would have me taking her to the airport at 4 something this morning. Samara was crying, and said that she was going to pray that God would make the plane's batteries not work before Mamaw got on the plane. We felt bad for Samara, and kind of chuckled at what she said she would pray for.

This morning, Mom and I were up and ready to head to the airport when Mom received a text that her flight was cancelled. Why? Because it had been struck by lightning last night, and it needs maintenance before it can be flown again. Since Mom is flying standby, she is "stuck" here for another couple days.

Samara is totally delighted that Mamaw will be here for her sixth birthday party after all!!  (She had already made a gorgeous Elsa cake for her party!)

Be careful when a little girl commits to praying! God takes those prayers seriously! ~ Diane in Montana
