3 year olds and prayer...

So Caleb and Jesus have this special prayer connection. It leaves me speechless , literally. Or I start crying because I'm so amazed at the different ways God interacts with us.
I think Caleb sees answers to prayers - I don't know if they are visions while he is praying or if it's actually seeing things in front of him that most people don't see.
Maybe when he's older I'll be able to ask him more about it. I'm not sure he would be able to understand my questions about it at 3 1/2, so for now, I'll just keep praising Jesus for how cool He is! So, how does this work? I think giving an example is easier than explaining.
Two weeks ago a girl from my team went to court to continue the adoption process for her and her 3 kids she is trying to adopt. Her fiancee was also with her. Caleb and I were praying that morning that Jesus would bring peace to their hearts. All of a sudden Caleb starts, almost shouting, "He's giving it! He's putting peace in their hearts! Right now, He's coming down - I can see Him! He's coming down right now and putting peace in their hearts!"
That was the first time. Since then it's happened another 3 times.
Tuesday night at prayer at church he did the same things when we were praying for God's armor to be on all who prayed for healing that night. And, when a woman asked for prayer for her son who lived a life of violence (in her words) we prayed that God would put His love in this man's heart...Caleb, again, with shouts of joy proclaiming that He sees Jesus doing that exact thing at that very moment.
Yesterday, the same thing when we were praying for the healing of our neighbor.
It doesn't happen all the time, these 4 times have happened over the course of over 2 weeks so it's not an everyday thing.
It's incredible - Go God.
