Yes, Jesus Loves Evan

Yesterday we went to look for some coats for the boys. They seemed to have a million and one coats last year, but they seem to have disappeared. Anyway, we found a Dallas Cowboys fleece pullover thing for Payton, but I didn't really want to spend $20 on that (although I know that's not a lot -- well, actually it is for a pullover).

Anyway, Evan kept telling me that he wanted a Chiefs coat. I kept wondering how we were going to find that in Texas without spending an arm and a leg for a coat he'll wear one year.

Anyway, last night Aaron told me to go to Goodwill this morning and see what I could find. We pulled in the parking lot and Evan asked why we were there. I told him we were looking for a coat and he said, "But remember, I want a CHIEFS coat."

We went in and were looking through the rack. I found a black and blue coat that was in good shape, but he wasn't having it. He wanted the CHIEFS. I went to the other side of the rack and look what I found:


He was so excited!! And it was only $3.24!! Yes, the sleeves are almost too short, but I just couldn't pass it up! He is SO proud of that thing!! I told him I had to wash it and he didn't want to take it off! I just kept laughing thinking that God cared whether Evan had that CHIEFS coat or not!!
