I was reminded today of an event that happened late last year.  I realized that since I hadn't written it down, I'd surely forget it again, and this was just too funny to forget!  So here goes ...

  After taking Rachael to the Nativity movie, we were discussing Jewish traditions and the fact that Jesus was a Jew.  Rachael asked "why" he was a Jew, and I explained that he came from the lineage of King David and that his family was Jewish.  After several minutes of silence, she said, "but Mary wasn't Jewish, was she?"  I replied that she was.  Several more seconds of silence ... "but Mom, I thought she was a Virgin, not a Jew ..."

I love the sweet innocence!  She's growing up too soon.  Lord, help me savor these wonderful days with my children before they're gone forever ...
