Tonight, for a bedtime story, I decided to tell Bethany her adoption story again (kinda glammed up with "Princess Jenny," etc. to make it more exciting). Anyway, the following conversation happened:
Me: "And then we took the beautiful baby to a very special place. Do you know what place it was?"
Bethany: "The temple!"
Me: "That's right! And what happens in the temple?"
Bethany: "We get sealed!"
Me: "Yep! And what does that mean?"
Bethany: "We'll be a family forever and ever!"
Me: (Getting teary, trying to say something profound and wise to really hit the point home when--)
Bethany: "And you were my one true Butler Tyrone!"
Me: "Um, yes. I'll always be your true Butler Tyrone." (Kiss and goodnight.)
Somehow, even spiritual things come back to The Backyardigans. Oh well. :0)

Even with the Backyardigans ending, that was such a precious story. I can't wait for Krista to be old enough to join in telling her story. That temple day is my absolute favorite part of adoption!
