Jesus and Pumpkins

The other day I was playing on the floor with Lydia. I love watching her. Her soft little face, her silky hair, her sweet lips. I just got a surge of love and thankfulness as I watched her.

I blurted out, “Lydia, did you know God has plans for you? He made you! And Mommy is so proud of the good girl you are. I love you so much. Did you know that?”

She looked at me very seriously and said, “I turn Mommy into a pumpkin! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5!!!”

Yet, still sweet.

    So God’s plan is for her to be a fairy godmother… it could be worse. :-)

    I LOVE that! I do that too – I get all deep and philosophical with Elias, and he replies with something like, “I am a ROBOT!”

    I love it. She has high aspirations too mommy! No messing around with glass slippers and princes, she’s going straight to the top of the fairy tale chain!
