John 12:3 - Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
I don't always wear perfume. I did this morning. As Myles gave me a hug, he paused to enjoy the aroma.
Mom - That's my perfume you smell, Sweetie. Don't hug too tight or you'll smell like me all day.
With that, Myles looked up at me, and then burried his face in my sweater to 'rub my smell' on him.
Myles - I like smelling like you.
As I enjoyed that small moment and was thanking God for being his mom, I thought about Mary anointing Jesus.
I thought, 'Do I love Him enough to want to smell like Him?'
