We were driving home from a little holiday sale (a bunch of women with at-home business' sold our stuff at a friends' house today--great idea!) and we passed a church with a cross outside.
AK: "O look, the cross Jesus died on Mommy!"
Me: "That's right honey, do you remember why Jesus had to die?"
AK: "Because I sin."
Me: "That's right, and because Mommy and Daddy and Ryan and everyone else sinned, Jesus lived here and never ever one time sinned and then He died to take all of the sins away. That's why it makes Him so sad when we sin, right?"
AK: "That's right Mommy, and now that He lives in my heart, I don't want to make Him sad anymore!"
