On our way home from church tonight (we have our services on Saturday night instead of Sun. morning) it began to rain and very shortly turned into a full blown thunderstorm. The kids always ask about what the thunder is and the lightning. After getting home the kids were downstairs having something to eat and I took David on a tour of some home decorating I had done today while he was out ;) While on tour a huge boom of thunder echoed, and of shortly after all the boys were crying and running up the stairs for us to comfort them. I once again told them that there is nothing to be afraid of and that Jesus made the thunder and the lightning and he would protect us. I then added that the thunder and the lightning are like a song. It makes noise sometimes loud and sometimes soft. The kids were happy with that answer and continued eating. Suddenly, Noah comes running over to daddy and jumps in his arms and just lays his head on his shoulder. I guess he just wanted to snuggle. Then another loud boom happened and Noah responds saying "Thank you Jesus for the thunder that is just like a song" I thought that was so sweet!
It's now bedtime and Noah wants to join me in my room while I get my PJs on and put away my clothes etc. While in the process one of my earrings fell out of my ear and I asked Noah to please pick it up for me. He did and continued to talk to me and then all of a sudden he says "I don't have a hole in me" with a puzzled look on his face. He was referring to a hole to put the earring in. He said "only mommy has a hole in her" :) Once again a cutie pie comment from a cutie pie.
