A Little Piece Of Heaven

Tonight before I laid Ella down for bed we read through one of her bibles. After we were done she wanted to know if we were going to see God tomorrow and if he was going to come to her house. Then she wanted to know if Mary, Joseph, Jesus, Jonah, etc. would come to her house too? I tried to explain to her that they lived long ago and told her that they all live in heaven with God and Jesus. It was so sweet to listen to her talk and try to figure it all out. "Do they use clouds as beds in heaven? Do they have to listen to all that thunder and lightning up there when they're sleeping? Are they up there with the birds and mosquitoes?" If you know Ella and her motor mouth then you know by 8pm I am mentally worn out solely from her talking all day. However, I could have laid there for hours listening to her innocent little questions! I told her we had to be really good to get into heaven and she wanted to know if they were really good if her and Bradley could go.

On a sillier not, earlier today she pointed out to me that she had a boo boo on her leg. I told her it was a scab. She proceeded to repeat over and over that she was bit by a crab. Since we had seen a huge crab at the beach a few weeks a go I thought she was just being silly. Half way through the day I realized that she thought I told her she had a crab. She thought she was bit by a crab......when really I said...yep, that's a scab!

Bradley is busy as ever. He is exploring ways to try and get his way. He sure can get upset when he doesn't get his way! He is doing great at swimming. They both love the pool. Since Bradley watches Ella swim all over by herself he wants to swim more and more. Tonight he swam underwater about 3-4 feet to the wall about 5 times in a row and loved it! We also turned on our Fisher Price Star Station that allows them to sing into microphones and see themselves dance on tv and that was a real hit with Bradley since he had never really done that before! Ella and Bradley have tons of fun together and make each other laugh like no one else can!! That's a great sound!
