I will post our Christmas and SNOW (smile) pictures tomorrow, but I did want to jot/type these few memories down before I forget them. On the way home tonight, while Graeme was zonked out already; Ceilidh was keeping Andrew and me on our toes! She loves to listen to music loudly and is always complaining she, "can't hear" the music when we are in the car. I was messing with the volume and asked her if she could hear better. Just as serious as she could be says, "If you would stop talking, I could hear better." HA She wasn't saying it in a sassy sort of way, she was simply stating a fact. I asked a question, and she gave an answer... even if it was a hilarious one!
A few miles down the road, she starts saying, "Oh no, they are messing up my song!" Jingle bells was playing on the radio, but it was a version that she wasn't familiar with, and apparently didn't like! Then, just a few more miles down the road she asks, "There was nothing here when Jesus was born, right? God hadn't made anything yet?" Andrew told her that actually there were people and things on earth when he was born, b/c God had created the world in the beginning. He briefly went over the 7 day timeline for creation. She then says, "How? How did he make everything when he was in Mary's belly?" You could have knocked me over with a feather! I never cease to be amazed when she starts exploring biblical truths like the Trinity. She knew that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit were the same person/Deity; but couldn't figure out how Jesus was born into a world that he created. These truths are difficult for me as a 27 year old to understand, much less a three year old. I love that she ponders these things. I love seeing God actively pursuing her heart!
