Every morning the girls come into bed with us for some morning snuggles (well these days Zoe comes in at about 2AM and snuggles up and goes back to sleep, but that's a whole other issue!) In the actual morning Jasmine comes in and usually announces that "it is Mawninnng Tiiime". This Saturday Morning's snuggle time conversations just had to be written down.
So just before Jasmine comes in, Zoe awakes, sits up and stretches... "Mommy, Daddy... I have to tell you something" OK we say, "I don't believe. I don't believe in Santa" and she ever so dramatically hangs her head. " I won't believe until I SEE him" (She recently watched a movie 'Elf On The Shelf' where a little boy doesn't believe in Santa... and clearly she thought this was an interesting idea to test out)... I asked her what she didn't believe about him? "I just don't believe if he'll leave presents. AND.." without skipping a beat she continues.. "Mommy, Daddy I have something else to you. I don't believe in E.T. anymore, it's true, I just don't believe in E.T." !!!
After Zoe's big revelations Jasmine came in and announced the morning, she snuggled up and we were talking about going to Hudson's "Walk through Bethlehem", Jasmine says "I think we should talk to God" Grahame says OK, yes let's talk to God... Jasmine says with the proper tone "OH FOR GOD's SAKE... see that's how you talk to God." !! Zoe then throws out a few of her little sayings... "Oh for sheets' sake, we've all lost our marvels" Grahame taught them how to say a little prayer and minutes later we're back to Christmas and the Christmas Tree, Zoe says "We should put the Christmas tree by the fireplace, but not too close to the fireplace it could catch on fire. Actually we shouldn't have a fire because Santa could burn his feet and then how would he walk all the way back to the North Pole?".... So much for her not believing!!! Can't wait for Christmas this year, the magic of Christmas is already filling our house and its awesome, as are these morning conversations we get to have!!
That is beyond adorable! How lucky you guys are!!
