Today my dear sweet Cora came in and told me that her head had been chopped off.
I then took this opportunity to explain to her that inside her head is her brain it tells her body when to breath,how to walk and make words,etc.
She then thought about it for a moment and told me that her head had been glued back on.
But then for the next 15 minutes or so she pretended to have various body parts cut off and glued back on.
She even, ever so nicely, asked her brother if he would like her to chop off his arm ...to which Caleb promtly shouted "NOOOO" and trotted off to his room.
So, I continued cleaning while I worried about where this disturbingly violent playtime activity came from.
From a TV show?
A movie?
Another child prehaps?
Then it hit me...
Earlier this morning, while driving in the car, we were listening to a dramatized reading of the bible.
It covered the verses that talk about if part of your body causes you to sin, you are better off if you just cut it off.
Ahhhh, guess she was listening after all.
Who knew.
