I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Ours was great except for the fact that I am sick with a cold. My head feels like it's going to explode every time I cough.
We have been having fun enjoying our time together playing games, etc...
Now about my post title...Grace was sitting next to me on the chair that is next to our wood stove and she lifted my shirt alittle to see my belly. She began to rub my belly and squeeze it so I said, "It's soft, huh? Well that is from having five babies. You used to live in my belly too for 9 months." To which she replied while lifting her own shirt, "Jesus lives in my heart." It was so cute and I said, "Jesus lives in my heart too." Faith like a child! Dan has been talking to her about Jesus and having him in her heart and what that means. I know she is still young to fully understand but just knowing that she put two and two together...A baby in my belly and Jesus in my heart!
Then she went back to squeezing my soft belly and talking in a quirky little voice and I suddenly realized that she was making my belly button talk. I didn't know whether to feel offended or giggle at her creativity. So I did alittle of both and quickly pulled my shirt down and removed her from my lap.
Hope everyone has a Happy New Year and that Jesus lives in your hearts!

We had the stomach virus going through our house for Christmas. Thankfully we made it through most of Christmas day without any messes. :)

That is so cute! I don't allow the kids to look at my belly anymore, especially after crazy asked me why my belly has little "holes" all over it. Uh they are dimples dear! lol

Cute story. My boys love to "poke" fun at my soft belly too. I think Grace was being sweet but I think my boys aren't so sweet when they do it....stinkers!
