Love You, Bye Bye

Aubriana loves to say "love you, bye bye". She says it to just about anyone. Even complete strangers. One time we were in wal-mart and an older gentleman was taken away by our pretty girls. He stopped to chat with us for awhile. Our girls caused him to reflect on his own grandchildren. The conversation ended and as we walked off Aubriana yelled out her favorite phrase 'love you, bye bye. I leaned over and whispered to her " Aubriana were not suppose to love just anyone".

As the words came out of my mouth I thought actually we are. In fact, God commands it. Matthew 22:36-40 says "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."

Aubriana taught me a valuable lesson that day and maybe her example will be enlighten for you as well. Until next time...Love You, Bye Bye!!!
