How Do We Get To Heaven? And My Book Reviews...

On the way to school this morning Brycen asked me, "How do we get up to Heaven?" While I was thinking about what he meant, he answered his own question.... He said, "Hey Momma, I bet God has a big huge race car that goes really fast and a hundred people can fit in it, and that's how we get up to Heaven!" All I could say was, "Wow... you think so?!" while I hid my smile.

P.S. The new books last night were a hit! One is called "The New Bear At School." It was really good, fun to read, and great pictures, but it also had a great story line. It was about a new bear coming to class and how the kids treated him not very nice, b/c he was different, but in the end they all ended up being great friends b/c they gave him a chance. This story was great to talk about w/ Brycen b/c a couple new kids started at his pre-school and has made some comments like, "Me & Joey, or Me and whoever are already friends and play together so we didn't want ____(insert new kids name here) to play." I tried talking to him about how this wasn't very nice, but I think the book did more good for him to see how that hurt the new kids feelings (it had a picture of the big bear crying!). The other one is "Three Little Fishies and The Big Bad Shark"... we didn't order this one but they were out of the one we did so this was the replacement. It's a different version of The Big Bad Wolf! Brycen liked it and it had good pictures! Okay, enough of my book reviews! Hope ya'll have a great weekend!
