As we remember Good Friday and the sacrifice of our Savior.........Recently, without prompting on our part, Parker drew this picture. I realize that the dimensions may not be perfect but his attention to detail was well thought out. It may not show clearly but there are nails (in grey) and blood (in red) on the hands and feet of Jesus as drawn in the photo.
But what is missing may be most telling. In the picture of Christ on the cross, as drawn, Christ does not have a smiling face. What is interesting is that in every picture that Parker draws (every picture of himself; every picture of Mommy, Daddy or Turner; every elephant, bird or giraffe; every picture) everyone has a smiling face. But not Christ on the cross. When we asked why Christ was not smiling, Parker replied, "Because it hurt Jesus to die on the cross".
May we never forget.
