"Blessed"

I forgot to post about this, and I wanted to write it down before I forgot!

We were on our way to Costco, and Ben was reading from Psalms in the car.  He read:
"Blessed are they whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord.  Blessed are they who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart."
Psalm 119:1-2

Then he asked them what it means to be blessed.  I don't remember what Caleb said, but this was Emma's answer, which I will forever hold dear to my heart:
"It's like how mommy is blessed because she has lots of children!!"
