____________________________________
Bear: Mom, I am afraid to die.
Me: What part of it are you afraid of?
Bear: I am just afraid to die.
Me: Would you like to learn about dieing and what happens?
Bear: Yes
Me: OK the Bible teaches us that when we die just our bodies die but the part of you that is Bear inside like your thinking will live forever. The thing that is important is were will you live forever after your body dies. There are two places you can live. One is heaven with Jesus and God and it is beautiful and fun.
The other is hell with Satin and it is call a lake of fire.
Bear: Well, I will just have the fireman come and put out the fire.
Me: Well firemen can not put this fire out. Either burn forever or you have fun with Jesus. If you believe that Jesus died for you and ask Him to live in you then you get to go to heave with Him and God.
Bear:Oh, I love that! But how will I get to heaven.
Me: Jesus will come get you.
Bear: But how will he come down.
Me: He will come through clouds.
Bear: But how.
Me: Well I don't really know but He helped God create everything so His is able to come from heaven to earth.
Bear: oh, Can I have some more bagel?
Me: Yes you may.

Bear: Troy look, Its Wolverine!
Troy: Yeah, that looks great Bear!
Whispering to me as I join him at the

Later
Me: So, Bear I heard you had a great dream last night.

_________________________________________________________________
Troy: Mom, you and me are the only ones that were born in San Diego.
Me: Well but I wasn't born in San Diego I was born in a place called Orange County. Its kind of close to SD. You and I were both born at home. Everyone else in our family was born in a hospital.
Troy: Yeah, you and me girl! We were born at home.
2-14-13
Troy: Mom, I am a little scared about going to Heaven.
Me: What is scary to you about it?
Troy: Well, I don't think I will like all the fire every were.
Me: Oh, I think you might be referring to Hell. There are 2 separate places to go after we die. One is Heaven and one is hell. Hell is the lake of fire and separated from God but heaven is super rad. Would you like me to read what heaven is like out of the bible?
Troy: yes
So we read in Revelation about the new Heaven and the new Earth at the table while the boys worked on puzzles.
Me: So Heaven doesn't sound so bad does it?
Troy: No, I'm going to put all my love on Jesus so I can go there. I will work really hard so God will let me in.
Me: Putting all your love on Jesus is great but we don't have to work hard for getting in we work to obey because Jesus paid for us to get in. If you sin you should pay the price by death and Jesus said I will pay that price for Troy so he can get in for free. I had completely lost him at Redemption. Another lesson for another day :)
2-10-13
Troy: Mom, I would like a
Bible like this one for my birthday. One with all the words. I want those
pencils too so I can color the parts i
like. And I don't want one
like this it has to be boyish like Dad's.
After everyone helped organize all of Abi's clips and hair ties in the spiderman tackle box:
Me: Ok boys, did you see how much work it was to organize this? Do not ever open this box!
Bear: You know Mom, I can not even open that box on my own. That is a blessin for you right.
Me: Well yeah I guess it is.

Troy has started making up songs. There are 3 notes over and over. He likes to write down letters in his special super hero book Mamo gave him and then sing the songs back to us. Tonight's song went like this:
God your the greatest and we want to do what you want
God you are the greatest and we need to obey our parents
even if they get a little frustrated with us sometimes
Jesus you can do anything we want you to do
But You don't always do what we want because sometimes you are busy spending time with your Dad
Mary and Joseph got married so now you have 2 Dads

Me: #2 did you just hit #1 with that skate?
#2: I wanted a skate
Me: Is that a good reason to hit?
#2: No!
Me: is there ever a good reason to hit?
#2: (just to say the right thing) No.
Me: sometime you can hit if you are protecting your family from bad guys but you may not hit your
family, friends or dog.
#2: i will shoot bad guys with a bullet out of a gun, that is ok right?
Me: Well if your sure they are going to shoot you or someone else first yes but you are not in a
position yet were you need to be worrying about that.
#1: Well I'm in the position of shooting a gun at a target at the shooting range.
Me: yep.
