10 Things I love About Children   1. They trust us completely, teaching us how to trust God.    2. They stop to look at bugs, sticks and cracks in the sidewalk, teaching me to wonder at God's creation.    3. They are messy little people, teaching me that I need to be a servant and to train the next generation to serve.    4. They tell me I'm beautiful, showing me that God truly looks at the inside, not the outside.    5. They sometimes throw temper tantrums, giving me a chance to peek at how I must look to God sometimes.    6. They continually present new challenges, forcing me time and time again to my knees.    7. They love fiercely and without reservation, showing me how shallow and conditional my love can be sometimes.    8. They play and dance and sing without self-conciousness, showing me how fun life could be if  I'd put myself aside.    9. They continually ask "why?" which makes me think about why I do what I do.  10. They are the best huggers and kissers around. - unknown
