It's her small world

I love Eden's innocence and her perception of the world. When we were at the Milwaukee Public Museum last Wednesday there were so many instances that this played out.
We got out of the elevator onto the third floor and there was a life size display of Native Americans. They were spinning around in their native garb to demonstrate a pow-wow. When we first got off the elevator, Eden got a view of this and quickly pointed to the one she "wanted to ride".
A few yards away there was a Guatemalan marketplace setting. It was all roped off and there was a manequin with a baby in a sling on her sling. Eden quickly pointed out the "baby Jesus" and was already on her way to see the "manger" which was displayed as house made out of corn husks.
Then just the other day, we were reading a first words type book. Eden's had these mastered since 18 months, but she gets creative giving things more detailed names. There was a picture of a book on the floor  of a bedroom and I pointed to it and Eden's response was "Bible".
