Celebrating Again

Silas had his own little celebration on his birthday last week. We had just had the twins' party and a lot of Silas' friends were out of town or had plans so we just did a family party on his birthday. 

Silas said the smartest thing the other day. We were listening to a cd in the van that has a song which says, "the stars are His handiwork too."  You probably know it. Anyway, Silas said, "Why does it say the stars are His handiwork? He didn't use His hands, He just had to say it and they were made. It should say it was his talking-work."

Such an observant boy, he is. I didn't quite understand what He meant at first but when I put it together, it makes sense.  Especially when you consider what he has hidden in his heart...

He spoke and it came to be. He commanded and it stood firm.  

Psalm 33:9

(One of Silas' memory verses from Awana this year)
