Sometimes I like to write things down just for me, and perhaps that's what this post is :) Last night, Ella and I were in the car on the way back from church, and we were talking about Advent. Sometimes it's hard to convince a 4 year-old that we really do need to observe Advent before we get to Christmas and Baby Jesus. So, as we were talking about what Advent is, I was trying to prompt her to tell me that we're waiting for Jesus to come again. Instead, I said, "What are we waiting for in Advent, Ella?" Without missing a beat she answered, "We're waiting for the resurrection of the dead." I thought for a moment and said, "Yes, Ella, yes we are." It's amazing what comes from the mouths of little children!
