One of those moments you just want to bottle up...

We watched the movie Enchanted tonight. Jeremy and I were a little nervous that Bernadette would obsess over the dragon at the end (I had forgotten about it when we picked it out.). She is a very tender hearted girl and that very well could have ruined it for her. However, thankfully, she obsessed over how they got down off of the building instead, since they didn't show that part.

So, at bedtime, we were talking about princesses and I asked her if she knew why she was a princess...
B: No
Me: You are a princess because God is the King and you are His daughter.
B: Jesus died on the cross, is He the fairy godmother?
Me: No...Mary would probably be like the fairy godmother. Jesus is the Prince.
B: Who is married to Jesus?
Me: The sisters are married to Jesus, like the sisters at Villa Marie. They wear rings on their fingers because they are married to Jesus, like how I wear a ring because I'm married to Papa.
B: Does Sr. Patricia wear a ring?
Me: She did.
B: Did she sell it and get a new one?
Me: No, she died, remember? We pray that she is in Heaven with Jesus, her Prince.
B: Is she dancing?
Me: Probably!
B: Someday, when I go to Heaven, I hope I get to dance with God!

I love this age! So full of wonder and curiousity. Developing their own ideas about the world, often humourous, often so beautiful you want to cry.
