As part of Micah's pre-bedtime ritual, he is to kiss Ani good-night. I've been trying to get him to also say "Good-night Ani, I love you". Last night, as I was asking him to come over and tell her that statement, she raised her hands for "Yes". As Micah was still messing around and did not see that, I told him what she had done. Essentially she had agreed that she wanted to hear that, and that she too loved him. Such a simple gesture and facial expression say so much. I told him what she had tried to convey, and he said his good-night after that.
Also, during Sunday's sermon on trusting God more, our pastor was discussing how sometimes when complexity comes up in his life, his first reaction is to try to control everything, not necessarily pray about it first. While he was explaining this, Ani got this curious expression and smile on her face and gave a little interesting giggle. I took it to say "Yeah, how's that working out for you? Doesn't work too well for me".
Ani, you are amazing.
