Mittens in Summer: On Faith

Yesterday was a beautiful, hot day. As I was getting Madeline ready, putting on a summer dress and a hat, she noticed a pair of mittens in her drawer and said "Mommy, can I wear these mittens today?" I said "Yes". She proceeded to put them on and said "Then I will wear them, and then it will snow!"

It made me think is part of the "faith of a child" that Jesus talked about? As adults we wait for it to snow (metaphorically speaking) before we get bundled up, but maybe we should have the faith to put on our winter gear knowing that "then it will snow".

Of course, it didn't snow yesterday... but you get my point.
