A TALE OF TWO BROTHERS

Last weekend the boys went to Branden's parents for a few days. They look forward to their visit to Grandma & Grandpa's cabin every year. They love to build forts, hike, shoot BB guns & be spoiled. The cabin stay was cut short, by a never-ending supply of rain. So, they packed up & went down the mountain to Grandma's house. While there, Parker & Everett accidentally locked themselves in the bathroom. They were stuck. They knocked, but no one heard them. So, unsure of how to escape, Parker suggested that they pray. He asked Everett which one of them should say the prayer. Everett volunteered. He offered a simple prayer asking for help to get the door opened. When he finished, Parker decided he should offer one too. Before his little prayer was over....the boys heard their Grandma calling...."Boys?" To which they answered, "We are in here & the door is locked." Unbeknownst to her, she had come as an answer to their prayers.
When they later told me this story, both boys said that they were so glad that Heavenly Father hears their prayers. I am glad too! I love these sweet boys!!!!
