Three-Year-Old Theological Understandings

Anna (placing her ear on my chest): Mommy, I can hear your heart-beep.

Mommy: Really? What does it sound like?

Anna: It sounds like Jesus is in your heart beeping. He has your phone number and He can call you whenever he wants to. He has a phone in his pocket so He can do that. He knows Grandpa's number too. Jesus has EVERYBODY'S number.

Dragon Boat Races

We went to the Dragon Boat races with some friends today...lots of fun and great weather! Besides watching the races, which was both interesting and funny (none of the participants had ever done this before!), Anna also enjoyed the space jumps (of course!). The whole event was free, too, except for the purchase of a corn dog.

Odds and Ends

I used the camera for the first time since Easter today and found a picture I forgot....this is Anna and one of her friends watching a video after Easter dinner. When I saw her sitting so still, I just had to take a picture. She was definitely "in the zone." The boys let her HOLD THE REMOTE...something she doesn't get to do at home on the few occasions she is allowed to watch TV. She was even reluctant to come get dessert because she thought she would have to give up the remote control.

And this is just a random picture from this morning because it was spring...
