Caleb's first experience of answered prayer

For Caleb's 6th birthday we decided to host two parties at home.  One in the morning for school friends and  one in the evening for church friends.  Caleb wanted to rent a jumper with slide.  As you know, we can't have a jumper in the backyard if it rains.  The whole week before his birthday, the weather forecasted that it will rain for a week starting on Saturday, the day of the party.  So we prayed nightly that it will not rain.  And God answered.  Feb 20th was a cloudy day with no rain.  It started to drizzle alittle at about 6 pm and the next day was pouring rain. 

This was Caleb's first experience with answered prayer.  We took this opportunity to tell Caleb that God loves us and cares about our lives.  When we present out request to Him, He will answer according to His.  Thank you Father for showing Caleb that you care about every aspect of our lives.  May Caleb grow to depend on you through prayers.
