Veggie Tales

A couple weeks ago my mother bought all of the Veggie Tale Dvds and Cds. They have been playing almost non stop since then in either my moms house, my sisters or my sister in laws. Well Matthew and i like to listen to Jr Asparagus's Bedtime Songs Cd and there is one song in particular that i love.

In the song, Jr is singing a prayer to God. I love the way that he talks to his Heavenly Father as if he is sitting besides him. It reminds me that my prayers should be more like his. It also captures all the innocence of a little boy and the things that he did through out his day and just wanted to tell his Heavenly Father how his day went. Jr isn't perfect and he realizes that but he also realizes that he is striving to do all the things that he is suppose to but even when he falls short, his Heavenly Father will always love him. Sometimes we all need this little reminder.

I found this little video on youtube of Jr singing this song. I love it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYlMtk5NuMU


My Day 

In my bed I start to prayAnd tell God all about my day
I woke up in my little bed
And put my hat upon my head
Cleaned my room 
And cleared my dishes
Told mom breakfast was delicious
I went to school, learned something new
And tried to follow every rule
I studied my vocabulary
Had some fun with Bob and Larry


And so it's good to know 
How much you love me…it's true
The bible says you do
You really love me
 Your love was with me all throughout my day

I some how over looked my bed
Seems my dog is underfed
Forgot to change my underclothes
Watched one to many T.V. shows
I had some trouble sharing toys
And during rest time, made some noise
Walls are not for coloring
Sometimes I'm off key when I sing

And so it's good to know 
How much you love me…it's true
The bible says you do
You really love me
 Your love was with me all throughout my day
In my bed so quietly
I rest in knowing God Loves Me!

Thanks Amber,
I cant tell you how much i needed to hear that song today. Its been a long day full of frustration over trying to close on the house, and then a pin was found in my load of laundry so ive been spending the majority of my day getting out the ink from Cades work shirts.

Id never heard the song before, but it was a perfect reminder... and the innocents of it brought tears to my eyes... thanks
