Lane tucked Cohen into bed tonight while I gave Connor his bath and put him to bed. We said our prayers and he asked me to sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' because he really dislikes that song and I think this is his way of trying to overcome his dislike for it. Anyway, after we prayed and sang, he wanted to ask questions. He always wants to ask questions as a way of prolonging inevitable sleep, but we still let him ask because it's always something profound or sweet or thoughtful that he comes up with. Tonight he wanted to know if we get new bodies when we go to Heaven, which we have talked about before, so I told him 'yes.' But I also told him that God gave us bodies that He made special just for us to use while we're here. He thought that was pretty cool, and then he wanted to pray and ask God something. So here's how that went:
'Thank you, Lord, for this day and that my baby brother got to come. And draw me close to you, Lord, and can I bring all my stuffed animals up there to Heaven? Amen.'
He's so awesome, that boy.
