It was so cute; I was just sitting there talking to my two daughters while Carlie was sitting in the floor playing. That's when I heard her say, "Once upon a time...Amen!" We all just stopped talking and looked at her. A smile instantly spread across my face. I looked over at Jessica, my youngest daughter and Carlie's mother, and asked, "Where did she come up with that?"
Jessie laughed and said, "Well, I think it came from our nightly routine." She continued with, "Every night I help her say her prayers, then we read a story. And from that, she's put the beginning of her story with the end of her prayers."
I thought that was just so cute! But to hear Carlie say it was...well, it was just priceless! Unless you're a grandmother, too, you're probably thinking, "Okay, you've just lost it!" But us grandmothers know that no matter what comes out of these precious babies' mouths, it's beautiful to us!
"ONCE UPON A TIME...there was a baby named Jesus. He grew in wisdom and grace, and He died for our sins. AMEN!"
I think Carlie's got the right idea, don't you?
Have a blessed day!
