Every couple of weeks or so we have "Family Movie Night". A little tradition we started and the kids LOVE it!! We usually have pizza or something else yummy for supper and then we watch a movie all together as a family. Well this time, we rented Madagascar 2, a movie that Keegan has wanted to watch for weeks. While we were eating dinner, the little neighbour boy knocked at the door to see if Keegan wanted to play. But Keegan explained that we were having movie night and then the 2 boys discussed Madagascar 2 for a few minutes. Keegan then told Tyson to go home, but to come by tomorrow to play...as Tyson headed down the street, Keegan yelled to him, "Hey Tyson, don't forget you are a Christian!" Tyson's family are not believers, but Keegan prays for Tyson, and shares the truth with him...Tyson has apparently asked Jesus into his heart. But Keegan says, every once in a while Tyson doesn't choose to do things that would make God happy, and that is why he reminds him that he is a Christian. Isn't that true faith of child...the fearlessness Keegan has will change lives, and the preciousness of his innocence brings tears to my eyes. And I think it is a good reminder for us all, don't forget you are a Chritsian when you make the choices you make! I love Keegan!

Our Keegan
Every couple of weeks or so we have "Family Movie Night". A little tradition we started and the kids LOVE it!!

I love it, Susanne! I think Keegan was telling me about his friend -- I understood that his friend's family is not a Christian but his friend is. How neat! That's great that Keegan is encouraging.
