Since Corbin was born, at bedtime we always told him who loves him - mama, daddy, aunts Jessica and Rachel, uncles Kevin and Jon, grandma, grandpa, and meemaw and pop-pop. We would by telling him Jesus loved him the most of all.
About 6 months ago he would try to repeat when we said Jesus. We would ask at bedtime "Corbin do you know who loves you most?" He would babble something and we would say "Jesus loves Corbin the most!" Then he would say "cheese!" trying to say Jesus. Very funny, we made him say it for everyone.
Last week, at bedtime, I asked him who loved him most. He said, clear as day, "Jesus!!". The next day at nap, I laid him down and said "I love you" He got all excited and shouted "Jesus love most!" It was so sweet.
Now every time someone asks him who loves him, he says "Jesus!" It melts my heart every time. It's so precious to see him grasp the truth of Jesus' love for him.
I love my monkey and I love seeing him grow. I pray someday he will love Jesus and grow in Him.
