I have Jesus in My Heart

Just wanted to share with you guys a quick story.

I just crawled into bed and I thought I saw a light turn on in the house or outside, so I got up.  I thought I heard someone calling outside but ignored it because my neighbors are very loud cussing and yelling in Spanish, during the day and late into the night.   As I got out of my room, I realized it was Daniela's (/Jessica's) room.  (She decided tonight that since Jessica fell asleep first in her own bed that she would sneak up to her own bed and try to sleep separately for the first time.  I agreed that she could try.  I figured we could give it a try and see how it works with Jessi.)

I walked back there thinking she was awake, messing around, but as I rounded the corner, she shut the light off not knowing I was coming.  I said, "Hey, baby" in English.  It was dark and she said, "Oh, mama!" in a "Ayyy you scared me" kinda way.  I flicked the light just then.  She said, "Ayyyyyy, Jessica was crying and she is ::whimpering sound::, I wanted to run down to her, but I was too scared.  I called to you twice, did you hear me?  So, I decided, I have Jesus in my heart!  I can go down there! So I did and she was crying in her sleep."

I asked if she thought someone was in her room and she said, "Yea, but when I got up to check it was just in my head."

I gave her a high five!  Nice job for calling me and for going down to check!  She was so freaking confident when she said it. 

I am so stinking proud of her!!! I just wanna high-five Jesus!  We got this kid for sure <3

My heart is going to sleep so joyful tonight.  My cup runs over.
