Those of you who know Charis will appreciate this story most. Last night Graham, the boys and I went to Pete and Charis' house to enjoy some barbequed antelope and corn around the camp fire.
Uncle Pete and Malachi have a very special connection since Malachi was the fist person under five to truly make his way into his heart.
Last night, Uncle Pete gave Malachi one of his most favorite things...a present. It was a pair of broken binoculars, that were Pete's when he was a kid. Malachi was thrilled as you can imagine.
Malachi was using them to peer out the window proudly when Aunt Charis asked them if she could see them for a minute.
"No," Malachi told her, "They're fragile."
This brought lots of laughter and Malachi began to stand a little taller from the encouragement.
"Please, Malachi!" asked Charis using her best begging tone
"No, you are too little."
As I think everyone would agree that knows Aunt Charis. That's about the best thing in the world for Malachi to say to her! Haha!
