Amazing Grace as Seen by the Eyes of a Child

 

Natalie is my beautiful granddaughter.  While visiting with her this week, she told me that she loved to write.  She is six years old and getting ready to go to first grade.  So, when she told me how much she loves to write, I told her that if she would FullSizeRender (48)write a story about anything she wanted to I would use it on my website.  I told her she could write about her most loved memory, her favorite pet, or anything she wanted to.  She said ok, sat down and began to write.  She kept turning pages and writing again. I thought she was having trouble deciding what to write.  We left to go off on an adventure in the park before I could read what she had written   When we returned my daughter handed me the pages that Natalie had written and as I read I was in Awe.    Little had I realized that she was really writing her own 8 page book. A book that spoke volumes in only a few words.   I typed the words at the side incase the pages are a little hard to read.  I hope you enjoy this her first book.FullSizeRender (36)

“And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.  (Luke 18:15-17)
