This Boy...

...is something else.

Everyday Hudson either makes me laugh or melts my heart in a new way!

Here are some recent examples:

A conversation at storytime the other night.

We were reading about the parting of the Red Sea.

We were talking about how God always makes a way for his children.

Lawson: God made a way for us by sending Jesus to die on the cross for our sins.
Mom: That's right Lawson.

Lawson: Why did the people want to be mean and kill Jesus?

Mom: Ya know...I don't think they were trying to be mean...but they didn't understand who Jesus was....and they ended up making a bad choice.

Hudson (piping in from out of nowhere): That wasn't very courteous mom.

Courteous? What 3 yr old uses the word "courteous"?!

These are Hud's "Saving" Ropes.

He carries them around in his little harmonica case.

He says that he sees people that need saving...usually behind a chair or couch in our house...and he will get a rope out of his case, twirl it around in the air like a lasso, and then uses it to pull the person out and rescue them. I love it when he plays this game. I love that God has created in his little heart the desire to see people in need and "save" them....whether they are pretend or not. I pray that he will always be able to see the needs of those around him and respond.

Now THIS rope is not a "saving" rope.

THIS rope is his "band cord".

Hud pays close enough attention to the bands he has seen play to notice that they have "ropes" (mic cords) on the stage floor around them.

So when he gets ready to perform, he will go get this rope and put it on the floor around him!

Cracks me up!

No words to explain what is going on here! Hud will hear Rob playing his guitar in the office and will want to join in.
He is playing Rob's electric guitar in this one.
Such sweet moments.
A visit to Daddy's barber shop!

Daddy and Hud singing together. Hud is a little "pitchy"!

But he is doing his best to make a joyful sound like his Dad does.
