Noelle and I have been telling bedtime stories about Jesus.  Elaborate, detailed stories… I’ll tell a portion of a story, then we’ll sing a Christmas carol, and then go back to the story and on and on. 

We were actually talking about the wise men and how I imagined that they each had a camel because they had to travel so far to see Jesus.  She interjected, "When camels get mad, they spit.  They really do!" I don’t know where she got that, but it was a perfect contribution to the story!

Okay, so last night’s story was awesome (in addition to that).  I felt like God had really given me the words to convey how special Christ’s birth is to our 3 year old.  I ended with, "Do you have any questions, Noelle?"

She said, "Yes Mommy.  Why don’t you like to wear goggles underwater?"
