We had a crisis moment on our hands. A routine dinner at home (while Mom was away) featuring Mac 'n Cheese and peas, turned into a moment of panic and uncertainty for our little Teyah -- the one who planted the said pea in her brother's nose. Then, panic set in for Dave when he unsuccessfully tried to remove it. Even after googling and trying all kinds of solutions, still no luck. We even called the doctor for some advice since the pea was lodged so far up Kyler's nose you could barely see it. The pea was not coming out. In such a time of panic, what did Dave do? He pulled out the video camera and captured the moment.
After about 20 minutes, Dave was about to give up and take him to the Pediatrician, but before doing so, he thought he would try peppering up Kyler's nose one more time. Just when he was about to give up, the pea sort of just fell out. Right then, Teyah came downstairs and proclaimed that she had prayed for that pea to come out (she had fled the scene bawling and had disappeared into her room). She was so excited to have her prayer answered so quickly!
Teyah, then proclaimed, "I think Jesus is coming" as she pointed outside to an amazing sunset in which we could see rays of sunshine reaching through the clouds. It was a miracle and a small, tender mercy that reminded our family that God truly does hear and answer even the smallest child's prayers.
