I know it's a little late

I know it's a little late for an Easter post, but I'm trying very hard to be positive about my willful two year old that has decided that she's not potty trained anymore.  So here's something that she did the other day that was really cute.

The family night before Easter we told Ada about how Jesus went to Jerusalem, his last week, the garden of Gethsemane, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection.  She sat with acute attentiveness for most of it and when we got to the part that they nail Jesus to the cross and that it hurt she shook her head and said in a sad and kind of pouty voice, "Poor Jesus." Then when we got to the part about the Resurrection and showed her a picture of Jesus and Mary in the garden she said very enthusiastically, "Jesus is HAPPY!"

I don't know how much of the story she actually got, but it was really cute for her to react to the parts that we tried to explain the importance of... and it made it less frustrating than our usually FHE where she kind of ignores everything we say and tries to jump on the couch instead.  Overall she is a very good two year old.  I just wonder if she's a little too smart for her own good.
