At least something is sinking in...

As we talk about sharing in our house, we talk a lot about how Heavenly Father created everything, and how he wants us to give to others, share what we have with others, etc. Bella has recently started using this info to her advantage. For example, the other day she was jumping on my bed. I came in and using my mother voice, said: "Bella. You know better...no jumping on my bed!"
Bella: "Well, Heavenly Father made the people who made the bed, so it's really His bed, and he would want me to jump on it."
I had to try really hard to not laugh. And maybe He would want her to jump on my bed and just be a kid for a little while. Who didn't jump on the bed when they were little? We would have full on WWF wrestling matches on two beds pushed together growing up. My mom's only rule with that was "don't come to me crying when you get hurt."
Anyway...I think we'll be getting a trampoline soon...and hopefully that will curb some of the indoor jumping on Heavenly Father's bed.
