Natalie-isms

As we were driving home from a morning out with my mom this afternoon, the song "Oh You Can't Get to Heaven" came on on the CD we were listening too, and Natalie was quite amused by that song.  The conversation went as follows...

*song* Oh you can't get to Heaven (oh you can't get to Heaven) On roller skates (on roller skates)
Natalie:  You can't get to Heaven on ROLLER SKATES?!?
Me:  No, I don't think so...
*song* Oh you can't get to Heaven (oh you can't get to Heaven) In a rocking chair (in a rocking chair)
Natalie: You can't get to Heaven in a ROCKING CHAIR?!?!?
Me: (laughing)
*song* Oh you can't get to Heaven (oh you can't get to Heaven) In a limousine (in a limousine)
Natalie: What's a limousine?
Me:  It's a really long, pretty car with lots of seats in it.
Natalie: You can't get to Heaven in a limousine?!?!?!  (pauses to think)  I think you have to get a rocketship to get to Heaven.
Me (thinking to myself):  I guess I better do a better job of teaching her about the importance of Jesus in her life.
Natalie: No, Mommy, you need Jesus to get to Heaven.
Me:  *SMILES*  That's right, Natalie.

I just love it when she shows me that she listens to what I'm trying to teach her even when she doesn't always seem to be paying attention.
