Children really do have such great innocent wisdom. I want to remember these few that Eliza has shared with me recently.
A few weeks ago I bought Eliza a new dress (really cheap on clearance of course) I was showing her the dress and she said: "I will be as Pretty as Eliza Jane!" What a wonderful message. Too often we say pretty as a princess but she really is pretty as Eliza Jane!
On Wednesday we took the kids hiking (they were so excited) While we were hiking I turned to Eliza and asked her if she was tired her response was
"I am not tired I am getting stronger!"
What a wonderful outlook, now while going through trials instead of getting upset and saying I am tired and sick of the trials I am going to say "I am not tired I am getting Stronger!"

Kristen that is so very cute!!!!! I am not tired I am getting stronger, should be everyones new saying! Love it!!! I really loved her saying about being as pretty as Eliza Jane! Since I never get to see her, I was hoping it had something to do with the song I sang to her about being ,"pretty as her name, Eliza Jane! Wishful thinking on my part, but I can always hope!
I love both of those stories. I read Brandon the "getting stronger" one and we both laughed, what an amazing outlook!
