Bryc'es first day of fasting

So Bryce turned 8 a few weeks ago. So today is his first day to fast. We only have our kids fast 1 meal from age 8-12. Then when they turn 12 they fast 2. At any rate, anyone who knows Bryce, knows that food is EVERYTHING to him! Also, you should know that Bryce hates hot cereal. So this morning as we were opening his fast with prayer, we were talking. He said to me, "Mom, if you cook cream of wheat for my brothers, I won't have such a hard time fasting." Which is true! Many a mornings he has gone to school on an empty stomach because he won't breakfast. Every 20 minutes or so he has been coming up to me and saying, "Mom, I feel great!" Oh the faith of a child! We'll see how it goes in about 3 hours!
