the first commandment

As we were getting coats and shoes on today to go out and tour a couple of schools, I was coaxing Simon to sit still on the step. He was being sweet as can be and I said, "I love you Simon!" Ella was busy getting her own coat on when she chimed in:

Ella: You don't just love Simon, Mommy! You love yourself and you love me and you love Daddy!
Me: Who else do I love, Ella? Can you think of anyone else?
Ella: Hmmm...who else?
Me: Well, I love Mimi [my mom] and I love Jesus.
Ella: OH! I love Jesus toooo! He is our very best God. I don't want any other one EVER!

I don't either. Let's not forget it!
