Easter

Admission: I've had a very short supply of patience for my two kiddos at the end of a few busy days but then I overhear a "dialogue" of sorts that Jaden had with Jenna last week:

Jaden: Hey Babes, guess what? Them soldiers they took Him and put Him on the cross.
Jenna: Uh, huh.
Jaden: And Jesus died for our sins but He rose again and He's alive, Babes!
Jenna: Uh, huh.
Jaden: Yep, He died for our sins on the cross but He's alive!
Jenna: Uh, huh.

Yahoo! We've talked a bit about what "sins" are and right now that's basically coming down to: doing naughty things, whining, not sharing, yelling (that would be Mommy when she's mad!), saying no with an attitude, you get the point. He keeps adding to the list...

And then on a walk this afternoon, Jaden sang for about 15 minutes of the way his own made up song about Jesus, the cross, Calvary? (where did he get that one?) crown of thorns, and probably some donkeys and emus in there somewhere. Interesting mixture. But he always comes back to the main point....Jesus is alive.....Babes!!!
