marvin prayed it. i believe it.

last night i took peanut forward at church to be prayed over. i have only done that with our little kiddos. i would never dream of doing that with kids old enough to comprehend what's going on. but i told marvin, our little prayer warrior, that i wanted to pray for what's best for him, but that selfishly, i want to pray that we are what's best for him and that he doesn't go anywhere else. and marvin prayed that "peanut is where he needs to be and that god will protect his spot and keep us as a family." and he didn't pray that "if that's god's will" or "if that's what's best". he prayed it as if that IS what's best and that's what WILL happen and you know what-i haven't worried ever since. i think he's ours.
