Let me tell you a story...
A little girl gave me a hug today, but this one was different. This was one of those REALLY good hugs. She grabbed me all the way around and squeezed me tight, laying her head on my stomach. She kept her arms around me there and then looked up and said,
"You feel just like my mom."
This is the same little girl who had told me (just prior to the hug),"Miss Akins, I'm gonna bring you a chocolate chip muffin!"
I assumed she meant tomorrow morning, or next week, or the week after that... No, she ran to her backpack and pulled out this individually wrapped muffin. It was a sweet gesture.
This is also the same girl who yesterday was singing the Kari Jobe song "We Are". I was so impressed with how on pitch she was and so I commented, "I know that song! Do you like it?". She replied,
"Oh yes. It just takes my breath away every time I hear it."
Yep, it is a good song and I loved hearing a little girl sing it. And also, this sweet kindergartener really is creeping her little ol' way into my heart!
