A couple of Sundays ago, Peyton was getting her church bag ready to go and gathering some copies of the Friend (church children's magazine) to take to church to "read". She brought the April magazine to show me the picture on the cover. The picture is from the perspective of Christ's empty tomb and shows his disciples at the entrance looking in the tomb, astonished. There is a woman there and Peyton decided that that must be Mary Magdalene. She told me how she was Jesus' friend and was the first person that He appeared to after His resurrection. I was impressed with all she knew. THEN she went on to tell me that there was another Mary and she was the mother of Jesus and that she was married to Joseph. I was amazed that she must have listened as we have tried to teach our children about the life of Jesus Christ. I was touched and had one of those moments when I thought, "as parents, we must be doing something right!" THEN Peyton proceeded to inform me that, "Mary also had a little lamb."
That is true too, I guess. :)

Ha! That is precious! You definitely seem to be doing something right.
I love it - esp. the lamb part. :)
So cute. Thanks for sharing. It's so fun when we get these glimpses into kids minds and how they absorb everything.
