About a week ago, Hannah and I planted some flower seeds in three flower pots. I put them of the front porch and we promised to water them daily. Every day, when we walked past the pots, Hannah would check to see if the seeds had started to grow.

I have never seriously planted anything in my life  in seed form and had no idea how long it would take to see anything growing. Two days ago, as we walked by she said "Mommy it's growing......see it?" I peeped into the pots and saw nothing but dirt. No evidence of anything growing. Hannah on the other hand declared in her 3 year old know it all tone, that she sawsomething.

Well wouldn't you know, the very NEXT day, green was above the soil. The flowers are growing! When I showed Hannah she said, "See, Mommy I told you." She knew we had planted seeds and she was expecting something to grow. She saw with faith eyes the flowers forming before they actually did. I am the queen of faith. I believe all things are possible and refuse to accept anything other than what it is supposed to be but this little conversation with my daughter reminded me that I was not seeing our flowers with faith eyes. I needed to get on board. I was slipping!

I was waiting on a physical manifestation as opposed to seeing the beautiful blooms before the beautiful bloom.

Thank you Hannah Alexandria Perry for reminding Mommy of exactly what faith is. Plant a seed. Expect the harvest. Receive the harvest. Period! See the harvest when there is only dirt in the ground. Feel the softness of the petals before they bloom. Smell the fragrance before any is produced.

I got it baby girl.
You are right. You told me.
