"Old Soul"

One of the sisters in church today held Elsie, looked into her eyes then looked at Corey and me and said with a smile, "She is an old soul." What a deep thought. I am absolutely sure Elsie knows a lot more than both Corey and me. I have already learned so much from her innocence, purity, and perfection. These little new ones are certainly more mature in spirit than we are. So the next time you look at your sweet one, look into their deep eyes and see the "old soul" they are.
