A Bedtime Story..

Today during bedtime when I was tucking in my daughter ,she told that 'she' will tell a bedtime story this time.
The bedtime story as told by my daughter...
--------------------------------------------------
"There were two hearts. A Mommy heart and a Daddy heart. Both were walking.Then Mommy heart got lost. Daddy heart was looking for Mommy heart.He could not find her. He saw a magic chamber and the chamber had lots of keys in it. Each key will open a room in the heart" ( however the keys don't have a part in the rest of the story).
I got very curious by this time, and prompted her with "what happens next?"
She continued " a snow man had kidnapped Mommy heart" (! She is watching way too much of Frozen and Olaf I guess:-))
I asked "Did Daddy heart find Mommy heart?"
"Mommy heart was in the middle of a river. Daddy heart went to Mommy heart and kissed her. Then Mommy heart and Daddy heart walked together chatting. They talked and talked and talked.....The End."

Oh my...I am so so surprised by her imagination. I couldn't sleep any more and thought to pen it down before I forget. Rather than imagination , I think kids observe many things that we take as granted. Though Mommy heart and Daddy heart may fight at times and seems to be lost, her little heart is so damn sure that Mommy heart and Daddy heart love each other so much and no matter whoever kidnaps Mommy heart, Daddy heart can bring her back with his love coated warm kiss!!

And I guess that assurance is the best gift parents can give to their child..
