Myles on God


Myles and I had an interesting conversation this morning. . .

Myles: "Mom, where did you get me?"

Mom: "God gave you to me."

Myles: "Did you have to go to heaven to get me?"

Mom: "No, He made you grow in my belly."

Myles: "Mom, God is a She."

Mom: "Oh?"

Myles: "Yeah, and if you drive to heaven it's far far far."

Mom: "That's probably true."

Myles: "Can I have some chocolate milk?"

Funny...my boys said God was a she like it was nothing when they were younger too. Now I wonder if they know that he's a he :) Maybe now that their big brother has long hair too, they'll realize boys can have long hair as well. I'll have to talk to them and see if their views have changed later :) I love how kids think!!

I love how the profound is followed immediately by the normal with kids. :o) When we first began talking about our adoption and getting a baby sister, Nathan was convinced that he was adopted too. Wish I could live in their minds sometimes!

Love the idea that God is a woman! Why not?!

And hey, who doesn't love chocolate milk!

Thinking deep thoughts at a young age...a philosopher in the making! I'm glad he's got his priorities straight though. A little chocolate milk to keep the think tank working! ;)

I love how children have it all figured out. You wonder how long they have pondered these things...in between a thirst for chocolate milk, of course.

Very cute!!
