While eating lunch together today Layla proceded to give me a lesson on heaven and hell. As she started, I could tell she was trying to recount the lesson her 6 year old friend, Kendall, gave her while we were driving in the car. Kendall knew about heaven, she used the word hell and explained exactly what it is, who the devil is, how he became the devil, etc. She was spot on and she didn't sugar coat a thing! Much of the hell talk was new to Layla, so it intrigued her. Here is her version......."God lives in heaven, so does Jesus and well, Mary and all of Jesus depostles. But that's not what I want to talk about. I want to tell you about the bad guy. He used to be in heaven, but he was bad. So Jesus wrestled him right out of heaven and he fell with a big thud right into hazel. Hazel is where you go when you like that bad guy better than Jesus. Hazel is where......what's his name mom? I think it's........the devil. Yes, hazel is where the devil lives."
Now, I don't know where the word hazel came from and when I tried to correct her that, no, you mean hell. She replied......"Um, maybe mom. But, I better ask Kendall. She know for sure."
So, for this occasion I have posted a picture of my two little angels wrestling.

Oh, this cracks me up. Layla has got to be the funniest (and SMARTEST) kid ever! One evening I said to Ethan that we were going to say our prayers and thank God for our day...Ethan said, "No, I want to pray to Jonah!" They're not theologians yet!
Oh no!! Kendall asks me a couple of months ago what happens to people that don't love Jesus and don't go to heaven and well....I told her! Ha Ha! She hasn't said anything since though and I thought she had probably forgot about it. When they were here on Mon. they asked me to tell them the story about the woman who poured perfume on Jesus's head. Those bible thumpers!
This is absolutly HILARIOUS!!! Tell Dave I LOVE the shirt! Jon wears his all the time :)
