(This snippet comes from my sister Dana)
Ok, so last night I'm telling Jada a story to help her go to sleep. I'm telling her the one I made up of Ginny and Tasha. I start at the beginning and continue reading it out of my own head, as if it's a book. I'm watching her, while I'm telling her and her eyes are closed, her breathing becomes relaxed and I decide that I'll continue on telling her until I finish. Remember, it's a pretty long story-5 or 7 minutes or so. I'm dragging it out, slowing the words down to help her relax to sleep, right? So I get to the end of the story and am POSITIVE the kid is asleep. So I end it with, "...So Tasha never looked at Ginny as the scared little cat who couldn't do anything, but as a brave one, who risked her own self to help her friend...And Ginny realized that because she trusted God to take care of her, she didn't need to be afraid of anything!".
I look at Jada, sleeping so peacefully and prepare to stand up, when without missing a beat, and with her eyes still closed, Jada yells out, "THE END!". LOLOL.
BTW...She woke up this am talking about 'joshua'. I'm saying to myself, 'who the heck is Joshua', so I ask, 'Jada, who is Joshua?'. She remarks, 'Oh, you know Joshua and Ginny'! LOL
