God our Father

Mary Selwyn's new thing these days is, "Who made this/that?" She asks that about everything these days. Well Mary Selwyn loves the flowers that hang above my bed. She always pretends to smell them, though I am sure they smell like dust, and tells me how pretty they are.

Tuesday afternoon we were laying on my bed and she started going on and on about the flowers as usual. Then she looked at me and said, "Mommy who made those?" My first thought was they are fake flowers from Michael's. So I just said, "I don't know who made those." She looked back up at the flowers and then looked at me and said, "God our Father made them." I was so caught off guard by her answer I made her say it several times to be sure that is what she was saying. I guess she got frustrated with me and finally said, "Jewus loves me made them!" Isn't that the sweetest? Thanks to God our Father for sweet girls, sweet words and sweet memories.
