When I grow up ….

James likes to talk … a lot. He often tells us that talking is his hobby.

A day or so ago he was talking and talking and I asked him if maybe when he gets older he’ll be able to use his talking in his job. Previously he has told us that he wants to be a fireman – but things have changed.

He answered, “Yes. I’m going to be a preacher.”

  • I hope he will keep talking and become a preacher soon.
    I remember when Ellie was little, we have prayed(sort of kidding)for her to become a preacher when she gets to five. And when she got to five she often had dreams of Jesus and heaven and she told teacher and other kids in school about Jesus a lot. Her news time she’d mostly talking about Jesus,once she memorised psalm 23 in class.
