Leprechauns,Leopards,Lepers

The other night Janna was talking to me...I thought she was talking about leopards, then I thought she was talking about leprechauns, until she starting telling me about how Jesus healed the leprechauns, after laughing I knew she was really talking about Lepers.
Isaac and I had a good laugh...Leopards, Leprechauns, Lepers...oh the fun.

God is the only real Super Hero!

I really do love my morning conversations with Janna.
This morning she took a stuff animal elephant and a babydoll to school.
J: Is an elephant bigger than a bad guy
M: yes
J: my elephant won't grow because it is a stuff animal
M:yes that it right
J: Is an elephant bigger than a superhero-superman
M: yes
J: superman isn't really mom
M: yeah I know honey
J: God is the only real super hero.

I love my little girl! I love watching her learn the difference between real and not real. It is so much fun!

Thankful

As crazy as life is going lately for us these days. As car problems lingers, I am still fighting headaches, Simon has an ear infection, etc...I feel upside down some days, then I find out that one of Janna's friend is in the hospital, could be serious, I am still waiting for a call from the mom to find out details. It puts my petty problems in to line and I am thankful for happy healthy children who love the lord and love us with their whole heart.

Funny story...Janna was singing Saturday and we asked what she was singing...her answer Justin Bever. Where did you hear of him, one of her friends at school. We did try to correct the last name but Bever was so funny to us.

Simon has started singing more. He has been singing "rain rain go away, Janna wants to go outside and play". It always made Janna mad for some odd reason but he is so cute about it.

Simon's favorite story is the three little pigs. I wonder if he will ever get tired of that story.

The spring head time change has been hard on the us and kids. They are very tired but still fighting sleep at night. Oh the fun we keep having...they are very sweet once asleep.

Janna's kindergarten registration went well. We have some details to think about still, like transportation and after school care, etc...

Now I am trying to plan her birthday party which is creeping up on us fast.

My Dad has a temp job currently and mom keeps getting interviews. The court thing is almost over and we are praying for the 24th of march to come and go with no appeals.

The lord is taking care of us all and I appreciate all he is doing for us.

Kindergarten

Monday we register Janna for kindergarden. I am almost phyically prepared, but I am not emotionally.


When did my little girl go from this to this...


Bible Stories

Janna has always opened our eyes on what she understand about God. It is so beautiful to see her understand and love for the lord. She has been learning Bible stories at school and Church and I love to hear her perspective when she talks to us about it at home.

In the car the other week she told us she was a sheep and God is a shepherd. He watches over her and he never sleeps. She went on about this subject for a couple minutes.

In the bath tub this week, she said if this was the Sea of Galali and Jesus told her to walk to him she would walk on the water. Her faith is amazing.

During Sunday School she wasn't feeling well and was just laying on the floor while listening to a lesson. When it came time for question the kids at the table weren't answering so Janna spoke up. It was the story of the lady who gave the one coin...
teacher: Who gave a lot money?
Janna: The rich people
teacher: who gave all they had?
Janna: the poor lady
Teacher: Why should be give our money to the church?
(teacher told me the note on lesson said most kids say because we are suppose to and to encourage the answer to show God our love)
Janna: To show our love to God
She was right on...not feeling well enough to even sit up, she was understanding the lesson.

Janna has started saying longer prayers at night. I just love hearing her pray. It makes my heart sing.
