This is the same blog I'm obsessed with, and here's why:
This is a post form a couple days ago. I've been meaning to repost it but haven't gotten around to it. Lisa's (the blog owner) toddler son is the first one to speak in the dialogue that follows.
"Mom. Your birthday was in September."
"That's right."
"When's the next birthday?"
"Well let's see... MeeMee's is in January."
"Someone else has a birthday before MeeMee."
"Who?"
"Jesus. It's called Christmas, Mom."
Isn't that so sweet. I wish that every child could know that. Sometimes, with all the rush and busyness of Christmas we all forget this great message. We all forget that there IS a birthday to be celebrated. Christmas has been so busy nowadays that we sometimes want it to be over.
And sometimes, just sometimes,
We need a little 4 year old to remind us that Christmas is Jesus' birthday.
He knows a lot for a little guy, as he constantly reminds me! xo
