Last night around midnight I was writing a few things down that I needed to make sure and get done. I have several things that need my attention for an outreach coming up. I need to finish Sundays sermon, I need to check on my mom, etc. While I was thinking (I know working without tools) Collin woke up and walked into where I was working and asked if he could get a snack before he went back to bed. Wanting to be the cool dad I said, "you bet." Well he came back in where I was working with his pop tart (don't judge me) and asked what I was doing. I told him I was trying to think of some things I needed to get done tomorrow. Being the great kid he is he began to try and help me. He asked me if I had "eat ice cream" on my list? I told him I didn't but I would write it down. A few minutes later he told me not to forget to add "play football with Collin." I did.
I pray I never forget Collin is my greatest discipleship responsibility, and his love for God always stays at the very top of my to do list. (Ephesians 6:4, Deuteronomy 6:5-7).
