So, you know when your kids say the cutest things and you want to just remember them forever? So, like most moms, I usually write them down in a journal. With my first two this was really easy and I did it faithfully. With Chelsea (my third) I have sort of fallen behind. I am sad because Chelsea (almost 3 years) is just so funny. She is at such a fun age. She cracks us up all the time. So yesterday we were at my friend Kim's house. She has this picture hanging...
in her home. Chelsea was staring at the picture. All of a sudden she said, "Mom, that is Jesus!" I said, "yes it is." She then got really excited and said, "he is at the beach!"
Later on, on our way home she asked, "Where is Jesus anyway mommy?" I told her Jesus was in Heaven with Heavenly Father and Poopsie (her great grandpa that died last year, and she talks about his funeral and him all the time). She then said, "Oh wow, Poopsie is still with Jesus! I want to be with them really bad mommy!" I got the chills and said, not now Chelsea, but someday you will see them again." She then asked, "where is heaven mommy? I want to go there and see all of them". OK, so that is the reason right there, that each of us should have pictures of Christ in our homes. Isn't that our goal and purpose in life? To make it back to them someday? What a fun and sweet conversation we had! I know we will have many more like this. Our little ones are so pure and precious!

Lisa your blog is too cute and I love this post. When we are together I'll tell you about a similar experience my mom had with my brother at this age. I understand the chills you got. The boys love their jungle gym, thank you! See you soon. I love that I'm on your bloggers I stalk.
