Gift of Gabbing

Chris and I took Megan out for lunch yesterday for some one on one time!! It was great to talk to her about life from a 6 year old perspective. The cutest part of lunch was when a man walked in wearing Army attire. She turned to her dad and asked "Is that guy in the Army and do you know him?" (for those that may not know Chris was in the Army)? Chris replied "Yes he is in the army but I don't know him" just when you think that is the end it isn't...as we are walking out Megan stops at his table and asks "Are you in the Army" Man replies "yes" Megan says "My dad was in the Army." It brought smiles to all who were listening! Megan LOVES to visit with everyone (most would say she gets this from me)and it usually involves 20+ questions (future reporter maybe). Even though it makes me nervous I hope she holds onto this gift of speaking that God has given her.  For me it is a reminder that many of us never stop and take the time to talk to someone and maybe that someone needs a "Megan" to talk to.
