thankful for clean water



Tonight when Myles as eating I asked him if he wanted to take a bath. He got very excited and kept saying 'ba' (bath) over and over. I took him upstairs and couldn't get his clothes off fast enough, he was trying to climb in the tub before the water was even on.
He was so excited and started splashing. At first I thought about asking him not to splash but then I realized something. We are so blessed just to have clean water and extra water because so many children in the world don't only NOT get to take a bath, they are dieing because they don't have clean water to drink. Not only that, right now in Haiti more than 1000 people have died from Cholera, which people get from water. I am so thankful and since so many children don't have water, Myles can splash and enjoy it all he wants!

Also, tonight for the first time when I got Myles' attention I said "myles say cheese" and he looked right at me and went "eeeee"
