Jesus Love Me, This I Know

As we were driving to preschool this morning, I was singing Jesus Loves Me to Claire and Henry.  It's pretty typical that we are singing in the car whenever we're not talking, but this song was a new one.  It took a while to get it flowing too, as it was the first time I'd ever tried to translate it while singing.  You can imagine.  ;)  Anyway, Claire was loving it and kept asking "noch mal" (again) everytime I finished.  She got to talking more and clearly didn't have a clue who Jesus was.  I guess we're a lot better about saying "God" than "Jesus."  So I went into this explanation about Jesus being God's son just like Henry was Daddy's son, how God sent Jesus to the world to die for sinners, and that she and I and everyone were sinners.  I tried explaining how every time we make a bad decision, that's sinning.  And how God loved us so much that he forgives us every single time we ask for His forgiveness.  Well, I thought we were doing pretty good at understanding all this.  Then Claire replied, "I'm licking my toothbrush."
