Daily quotes from the one and only...Alyssa Ward


There is never a dull moment when dealing with my Alyssa. She is a mess. She is the most tender child. She loves others and has such a soft spot for hurting people. She Loves Jesus and is continually grasping who God is and what he did for us.

Here are some of our recent conversations.

Alyssa: "Mommy why is that man standing on the side of the road? Does he walk everywhere he goes?"
Me: "Yes baby he walks everywhere."
Alyssa: "Why, does he not have a car?"
Me: "He probably doesn't have a car." "He might not have the money for a car. Not everyone has a vehicle to get them from place to place."
Alyssa: " Well mommy, we can give him some of our money. That is what Jesus called us to do!"
Me: "You are right Alyssa. Christ wants us to love others like he loves us."
Alyssa: "Yes you are right mommy!"

Alyssa went with Matt to feed my dad's dogs while he was out of town last summer. Jake one of the dogs was on his death bed. Alyssa went with Matt (because I was at the dr. with Bella) to take Jake to the emergency vet. Jake ended up having to be put to sleep because he was dying and miserable.
So this weekend, she told her Nana that Jake, Papa Carl's dog died when they went to feed him. But, he did not die on a cross like Jesus did.

There are always funny conversations with Alyssa, but I love hearing her talk about Jesus.


"Train up a child in the way he should go:
And when he is old, he will not depart from it.
"
Proverbs 22:6
