Phone Calls to God

This morning in the car Gabrielle had one of our old cell phones with her. She plays with it pretending to text her friends from school. Neither Joe or I text so she must get that from my younger sisters. As I buckle her into her car seat she says this phone is very important. I smiled and said okay well I am glad you have it then. As I started to drive she said "Do you know I can call God from this cell phone". I just laughed to myself. She then started to talk on the phone. She said God was sending her pictures. She said "I see kids"..."Oh I see Elijah". My heart sank. So sweet that she thinks of her baby brother every day, but it just makes me so sad. As if I don't miss him enough already. She talks a little more and then hangs up the phone. A little later I hear her chatting away again...."I will send you a picture now, hold on". I asked her who she was talking to..."I am talking to Elijah". No words, just tears as I am driving down the highway. That little girl has such a heart full of love and I am truly blessed to her her if my life. As much as it hurts to hear her talk about Elijah and answer her many questions about him, it shows me how much she loves him.
