Did you know the wise men took Lightning to see Jesus? As Will was playing with the little people nativity, our convo went something like this...me: will, this is the story of Jesus' birth, he was born in a manger because there was no room in the inn.
w: dada?
me: no, dada was not there but he loves jesus. joseph was jesus' daddy, this is joseph.
w: dada?
me: yes, that is joseph, the daddy. this is mary, jesus' mommy.
w: mama
me: yes, i love jesus too & he loves you very much. this is baby jesus.
w: uhu?
me: yes, baby jesus.
Then, he picks up lightning & keeps saying, "uhu, vroom?" (moving arms around like he is "vrooming" - this is his new thing - started about 2 weeks ago & then fell in love with red cars at cousin luke's.)
finally, i said yes, jesus loves cars too. he put jesus on the car & then crawled away. i had to get a picture. priceless. boys are so different...my girls would have rocked baby jesus. i guess the natvity scene is blessed to be on a car instead of being used as basketballs.
this car is luke's old one we found at ma's yesterday, we have the small matchbox one but it has not be seen since after breakfast today. it may be forever lost in the invisible pit in my house (i think there are some socks & jewelry in that pit too, wish i knew where it was.)
as i am typing this, i heard a clunk, he hit a little people car on my santa with the lion & the lamb..i feel a new post.
