1 Corinthians 3:4-9

"For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere men?

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."

Humbled by a four-year old

Well, it finally happened! We've told stories about being corrected in our Spanish by both Ethan and Isabelle several times. We've now been both corrected and humbled by our four-year old!

Last night, Matt was recounting the day with me. He was telling me about a group of kids from La Carpio who were holding on to him as it was time to leave and telling him not to go and asking him to stay. He said that they said, "¡No se va!" It sounded okay to me and I didn't think anymore of it as he went on with the story. Ever so quietly, a few seconds later, Audrey says, "¡No se vaya!" which is the correct form of a command in the negative form. This is most likely what the kids said to Matt. And after Audrey said it she got this huge smile on her face and just kept repeating it, laughing the entire time! We were telling her good job and also playing with her and she was loving it! You could just tell she was proud of herself but at the same time feeling kind funny that she knew something her Daddy (or her Mommy) didn't!




All we could do was laugh...and marvel at being humbled by our four-year old!
