My Niece is Too Cute!

Copied from my sister's blog:

Ahhh, Christmas. . .

It is Christmas time (one of my favorite times of year) but simply forgotten most of the time is the whole reason behind Christmas which is why I find it very amusing that there are a lot of nonreligious people out there who still celebrate this holiday...... Lets not forget the Nativity.

Okay so that was all beside the point, but one of my many rants behind this season........ so little miss Dani--man kids are witty. She, being the little curious george she is was asking mommy about Christmas when we were putting presents under our beautiful Christmas tree. I was explaining to her that we celebrate Christmas because it is Jesus' birthday. So later that night, when I was snuggling her in for visions of sugar plums, she had alternate plans. Little miss thang is going through the whole fear of monsters. So after tucking her in this was the play by play conversation

Dani: Mommy I'm scared of monsters

Me: Well, sweetheart, you know who can help you ease your fear of monsters?

Dani: Who?
Me: Jesus can ease your fear of monsters.

Dani: Oh, okay......

So I tucked her in, kissed her head, exited her room and went to do something around the house..... a few seconds later at the top of her lungs I hear this.

Dani: "JESUS, HELP ME!!!! HELP ME JESUS!!! JEEEEEESSSSSSSUUSSS!!!! JESUS HELP ME!!!!

Me: Snickering in the other room, trying to regain my composure

So I go back to Dani's room

Me: Dani, why are you screaming?

Dani: Because Jesus isn't answering me!!!!!

Me: Well sweetheart, Jesus can hear you, but he wont talk back to you.

Dani: WELL, thats just RUUUUUDE!!!!

I was trying my hardest to not laugh. A few seconds later after explaining to her that monsters cant get to her if she is holding her pink teddy because big mean monsters are petrified of pink.......she says

Dani: Well, can we call Jesus on the PHONE?
