Proud mommy moment


These funny looking little creatures are called Moshi Monsters. They are little characters that you can customize to play with on a virtual world full of learning games. Caleb has recently become very interested in them, playing the games and collecting little toy Moshis. There is a "store" in moshi land where you can print things like coloring pages and moshi stats. Of course, Caleb wanted me to print everything available for his character so that he could color it and have it to look at. So I did. Upon coloring several pages and looking over the stats page (which shows things like favorite color, tickets collected, and mini Moshis collected) Caleb walks up to me very excited. "Mommy this has everything about my moshi so when people see this they will know what I am about!" Of course I am excited for him but questioned his statement. "So is that what you are about Caleb, Moshis?" As he sat there for a moment with a curious look on his face then very strongly replied in a very matter-of-fact way, "No, I am about Jesus." Lets just say that he got my attention. My joy filled heart replied with a look of shock from his beautiful innocence and passionate response. 
We high-fived and I told him how proud I was of him!

We will put that in the books for a successful self discovery moment.
