One morning last week Rebecca was upset because she couldn't find her Ariel doll that she had been playing with the night before. She said she looked everywhere but couldn't find it. I told her I hadn't seen it either and didn't know where it was. Then Rebecca got excited and raised her pointer finger in the air like she does when she gets a good idea.
"I bet I know who can help us!" She said.
"Who?" I asked.
"I bet Heavenly Father and Jesus know where my Ariel doll is!"
She suggested we pray to ask for help with finding it. She is so sweet. So we said a prayer, and then I explained that we now needed to do our part and look for it, and they would help us. We started looking, but as usual with Rebecca's 3 yr old attention span she got distracted by other dolls. It wasn't long before I was upstairs changing the laundry and went into the kids' bathroom and there was Ariel.
I took her downstairs to Rebecca and she yelled with all the excitement she could "I KNEW Heavenly Father and Jesus would help us find it!!"
It was such a precious moment. I was praying in my little heart that we would find it too, so she would know our prayers are answered. I'm so glad she has such a pure faith, and that she KNEW we would receive help if we prayed.

That is awesome story! What a sweet girl Rebecca is.
She is so sweet! I was looking at your pictures from this summer and I see such a strong resemblance between Riya and Rebecca! I know I've told you that before but if you just darken Rebecca a bit - hair and eyes - you'd almost have Riya! I love it! :)
