Overheard.....

3 year old Little Man, at bedtime last night while being tucked in: "Mommy, sometimes (brother) C does what satan wants."

Me: "Well, sometimes we all do things that satan wants, when we give in to temptation. Do you know what that's called?"

Little Man: "no".

Me: "That's called sin."

Little Man, repeating that word slowly, clearly thinking: "sin."

And then, "and when we do things that God wants it's called......"

(staring off in the distance for several moments and thinking)

"......I don't know what that's called."

Me: "that's called obedience."

Little Man: "yeah, obedience!".


(A few minutes later in the same conversation)


Little Man: "Mommy, when is God going to be finished making His really big house up in the sky?"

Me: "I don't know sweetie, but when it's done it's going to be awesome."

Little Man: "Yeah, it's going to be really BIG because once I saw a really big cloud."
