Some funnies

Just now as the girls are cleaning their room, I heard Ella singing. I recognized the tune as being "Christ the Lord is Risen Today" but she was singing the whole tune to the repeated word "bowel."

This morning as the girls were playing, I overheard Lily saying, "I'm not dead, my legs just got cut off." I never expected that sort of thing with girls.

The girls have been becoming more involved in praying with us, but sometimes I'm at a loss for how help them. Times like when Lily says, "I'm going to pray that God would send us a fairy. Or three fairies!"

One good thing that comes from the girls being interested in fairytales is that it helps them have a better understanding of God's work in some ways. The other day Ella was excited to tell me about a flower blooming and she said, "God made this flower bloom, it's magic!" I was able to reply, "Yes, Ella. It's God's magic!" I love that fairy magic and God's magic aren't so very different after all. What an amazing world we live in!
