Annie has a very strong devotion to the Infant Jesus. She seeks out statues of Him at church, asking to stop there when we are out by pointing and saying "Jesus!". She has an Infant of Prague statue on her bookshelf and a picture of Him in frame in her room. She was thrilled that he had arrived on Christmas Day, filling the manger with His sweetness.
He has gotten many, many kisses...
and she has been patting His little head.
Annie has been saying single words for many months, "Mommy", "Daddy", "ball", "birdie" and most recently her name. Yesterday, for the first time, she strung two words together and said, "Baby Jesus".
She just makes my heart melt.
