Sarah Kate has a funny little personality! She does not even know she is funny, but she is. She is friendly to everyone and really does not care what anyone thinks. She does not let anyone walk over her! She is a very happy little girl.
We were eating lunch together yesterday at the table and we were talking about daddy deer hunting and how we eat the meat from the deer. She said, "what does Daddy do with the deer's branches?" I said," I don't know what you are talking about." She replies, "yeah, you know those branches on the deer's head!"
Ha! That is her word for antlers.
Then in the afternoon we stopped and met some friends at a restaurant for a snack. The kids played in the playground. I noticed a little boy in there causing trouble for the kids. He was very rough and loud. I looked over and saw Sarah Kate telling that boy something and I knew she was serious. I told my friend that I better check on her because it looked serious. I opened the playground door and there is miss Sarah Kate, bold as could be telling that boy about Jesus and how He died for his sins and he can read it in the Bible. The boy told Sarah Kate it was a lie and Sarah Kate, "No!" She was very nice, polite and never batted an eye. He told her he was tired of looking at her face. This did not phase her. She asked him his name. He answered and Sarah Kate did her arms out and said, "well, you have a nice name."
Later, I asked her why she was telling that boy about Jesus and she said he was being mean to people and said he was bigger than God. Sarah Kate was not going to let that go!
I hope she will always have this boldness!

So please, what was the outcome of the cats?
Your post about SK was so affirming to all young Mom's I am sure. Teach them and they will let their little lights shine!
Warmly,
Pam in GA. (need update on cats)!
Love her boldness to proclaim the gospel at such an early age! May she always stand up for what is right and for her faith!!
I know all of Heaven is smiling at Sarah Kate's heart and boldness. . .
