Al Loves the Bible

7/17/2012

 Alec was an early bird. He would start to wake up at 3:00, then 4:00, then 5:00 , he would say, "Is it morning time yet ?", and I would say, it's too early Al,  go back to sleep.  Sometimes, if I was super tired, I would tell him it was 2:00  even if it was 6:00.   It was tough for me to wake up on Alec time.  Not for Keith though, Sunday was Keith's only day he could sleep in, since he woke at 4:30, 6 days a week.  But every Sunday, Keith always got up with Alec and I would wake up to hear Alec on his swing downstairs. Keith loved his special time with Al, and Al loved his special time with Dada.  Keith  never chose sleeping in over his special time with Al.

Then it started one day,  when Al woke up,  Al asked me ,

"Mama will you read me the Bible" ?   This was something that  made sleep unimportant to me,  so no matter what time it was, I would say sure Al and get my Bible and flip it open randomly and read it to Alec.  He loved  it, and would listen very intently no matter how long the passage was that I chose.  I would choose versus that he could somewhat understand (although I now know, he understood them more than me), and one of our favorites that I found was the one below;

(Sirach 27:12)  
When you find yourself with stupid people, look for some excuse to leave.
 

We laughed so much at this one, not expecting words like these to be in the Bible,  Al thought it was hysterical.  I think this was one of  his favorite Bible verses!
Al truly enjoyed me reading God's word to him, he craved it and needed it, this was something I would never deny Al -- no matter how tired.
It was so special to both of us.

Laura,

I had tears in my eyes when I started reading this, but then... as always, I ended up laughing in end! It sounds like a verse that Alec wrote himself. I'm so glad you and Keith both had your "special" time with Al. ♥

Thank you for sharing all your wonderful memories with us.

Love,
Holly

Laura, I have never heard that verse before... but I am going to try and remember every word!! Its a good one. I have told you and Keith, that Cassidy and Alec are lucky to have you guys. I also know that there are manyof us out there that love and would do anyhting for our kids no matter what. Yet the simple things like getting up even when you are so very tired, seem so hard to do even for our precious kids.....which leads me back to how lucky cassidy and Alec are to have the dedication beyond any words....a love that only their chosen mom and dad could give to them.
