This is 'new' information that was divulged to me today by Ellie.
We were in the car, and many times these days in the car Ellie inquires about 'tumping' over or another car 'hitting' us. In answering her each time I try to assure her that no matter what happens Jesus is with us. Well, today I had only completed half of my 'usual' answer and then she chimed in with her own rendition of the second half.
Ellie said, "We will not tump over, the other cars will not hit us, and Jesus is with us. Jesus was with us in the wreck. Mommy didn't even cry, because Jesus was with us. Mommy even went to be with Him after that, because He was with us in the wreck. But me and Isaac did not go to be with him. But when God says it is time for us to leave earth, we will go to be with Jesus too, and then we can hug our Mommy again. Daddy...you will have to help Isaac hug her because he is just a baby, he it too little to hug her by himself. But I can hug her."
What can I say? But, thank You Jesus, for being there in the wreck, for being here even now, and for being You forever. Thank You.

Beautiful!!
It is absolutely amazing how much wisdom and insight he has given to Ellie. Sometimes children say it best in their raw sweet little ways.
Thanks for sharing. We continue to pray for your family.
How precious and sweet...
it is so awesome the way God
works through each and every one
of His children to speak the truth to us. What a blessing.
I continue to pray for your family.
"The steadfast love of the Lord NEVER ceases. His mercies NEVER come to an end."
Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow, DV.

This just shows how Jesus is alive in Ellie's heart and with that she knows she will see her mommy again. How precious is that. She is such a brave and strong child. I am sure Amber is a angel watching over you when you are riding in the car each and every day.
I continue to pray for you and your precious children as many others do.
Anthony,
The Lord is so kind! Ellie is AMAZING! My co-workers and I at LifeWay continue to claim the words from her song on a previous post:
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful
The Lord is so wonderful to us,
He gives us His Son, Jesus Christ.
Now don't ask for anything else.

WOW, Anthony. I continue to pray for you and your family, and that, is an answer to prayer.
Sweet Ellie!
We are praying for y'all

You don't know me, but I have prayed for you and your family almost daily.
" Verily I say unto you, whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein" -- Luke 18:17 KJV
Be still, my heart. Thank you, Jesus. For being with us always and for mending little hearts like we never could. Teach us to be like them.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have read in a while! Thank you for sharing your heart and your love and passion for Christ. It has stirred and fed my soul today to read of your faith and love for Christ! I has given me a glimpse of eternity that I needed.
