Cute Alyssa...


Today on the way home from BSF we were listening to some iSix:5 and Alyssa was asking what they were talking about.  I was explaining that it was about living for God and finishing well until we're in heaven.  Whenever we talk about heaven she always says she can't wait to be there and be with God, but this time she said "I don't want to go to heaven."  We talked about why we should desire to be in heaven, but that we don't need to worry about when we're going, God is in control of that.  Then she said, "okay I want to go, but I have to take a nappers (aka nap) first!" :)  

Then a couple minutes later she asked, "how will I get to heaven?  Maybe God could make me like Tinkerbell and I could have wings and fly there...or maybe I could fly in a helicopter and go up, up, up."  (Nate just took the girls to an airplane/helicopter show on Saturday)

I know I've said this before, but I just love listening to what goes through her mind...and cannot wait to hear what is rolling through Emi's little mind! :)

That is precious. Btw, she was a very attentive listener in BSF class and participated in all the songs. Mercy and her together are a crack up! They remind me of Michael and Trey together. :)

How precious!!! I love having conversations like that with my kids!!! You'll love the fact that you've recorded it when she is much older! :)
