TODDLER TICKLER
“Bible Training”
Our 2 year old, proud owner of a small flashlight, loved exploring dark rooms and closets. One day, flashlight in hand, she went into the closet where snacks and goodies are stored and shut the door. She claimed she was just hiding. We heard rummaging sounds. Moments later, the door flew open. Out she fell, along with an open box of cookies that landed on her stomach. As she lay on her back, caught in the act, we asked her what she was doing. The only reply she could muster was. “I don’t know.” Jody Parupsky, Arden Hills, MN

JESUS
is the
heart of
CHRISTMAS!
