I had to write this down, because this is something I don't want to every forget.
Last night Cohen and I were reading his new Message Bible before bed. We were on the story about Judas betraying Jesus and being handed over to the Jews. When we got to the part where the Jews shouted, "Nail him to the cross!" this was our conversation....
Mommy: "Does that make you sad that they had Jesus nailed to the cross?"
Cohen: "Yes, but it's kind of happy too."
Mommy: "It is? Why is it happy?"
Cohen: "Because it made him save me from that bad stuff in my heart."
Mommy: "You're right. Who told you that? Did Daddy talk to you about that?"
Cohen: "No, I just know it."
I couldn't say anything because I was so choked up and began to cry.
Cohen: "why are you crying?"
Mommy: "because I'm so happy that you know it."
That's my son- 3 years, 5 months, and 8 days old- wise beyond his years! Thank you God!

that is so...awesome and the sweetest thing! I would have cried too! I can not wait for Lincoln to start saying things like this.
That is so sweet. I am glad that you added that you cried at the end, because I started crying reading your post...
