"You're not God, so..."

Snapshot of earlier today, so sweet and ever so excited to wear a wedding gown. Because, "I've never worn a wedding gown before!!!!" "How do you walk?" "O! Can I wear you're veil?" "I've never worn a wedding veil before!!!" "I need some shoes..." "How does this stay on?"

Three came sixteen days ago... The laughter hasn't ceased... Here's a glimpse at bedtime tonight:

Background info: After flinging Elvis (one of our new kitties) off her bed, her punishment was taking away the newly acquired Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder dolls she was planning on sleeping with. Lots of crying ensued along with a "talk"...

Mommy: When you're upset, you can talk to God...
Jeorgia: (sniffling) okay
Mommy: Dear God, my heart is really sad right now
Jeorgia: Dear God, my heart is really sad right now
Mommy: Thank you for forgiveness...
Jeorgia: Thank you for forgiveness...
Mommy: and that tomorrow is a new day...
Jeorgia: and that tomorrow is a new day...
Mommy: and we can try again.
Jeorgia: and we can try again.
Mommy: God says do you love your kitty?
Jeorgia: Yes
Mommy: and you love your mommy and daddy and baby sister?
Jeorgia: Yes
Mommy: God says we don't hurt people and things we love. We take care of them...
(interrupts with a hand in mid-air motioning "stop" and the other gently touching my cheek)
Jeorgia: Mom, you're not God, so don't talk.
