Bedtime stories

Tonight, I tried something different. I read the story of Daphnie and Apollo to DD. She liked it and had lots of questions. A woman who didn't want to get married? He felt her heart beating under the bark of the tree? A nymph? Cupid? LOL. She seems to really like Greek mythology. She hasn't yet covered it in school but it seems like material that really gets the imagination running. :)
She asked me if I believe in these gods. I told her, "If I had to pick a God to believe in, this is who I would choose." I then turned to a picture of a stone bust of Minerva (head for Lemnian statue, Roman copy after Phidias). It is a beautiful picture.
