Since the previous post was so heavy, I thought I would make note of the conversation tonight while driving home from church.
Mommy: What did you talk about tonight in Mrs. Beth's class?
EB: Jonah!
Mommy: Was Jonah in the belly of a zebra?
EB: NOOOOO Mommy!
Mommy: Was Jonah in the belly of a horse?
EB: NOOOOO Mommy!
Mommy: Was Jonah in the belly of a rabbit?
EB: NOOOOO silly Mommy! A fish!
EB: (singing), "Godder fadder, we tank yoo"....., he pauses
EB: Mommy, who's Godder"?
Mommy: Baby, it's God Our.....
EB: Where's God?
Mommy: God is in Heaven
EB: Where's JE-HAHS?
Mommy: Well, Jesus is in Heaven too and also in Mommy's heart
EB: I want to go to Heaven (pause), maybe one day (pause), when I get older
Mommy: Well sweetie, you will go to Heaven whenever God says it's time to go to Heaven
EB: I will obey God!!!
Bless his sweet little heart! He hears "when mommy tells you to do something, you obey" at least 50 times a day. So, when God tells him it's time to go to heaven, and he obeys - is correct!
What a fabulous conversation!

So sweet Erin. I have been trying to use the whole "obey" route lately to see if that helps the boys any. some days it does, others not so much. EB is precious. We need to get together soon, especially so I can hear all about your new journey and how your first class went. Excited for your family in this process. I know it will be blessed.
Precious!
that is so cute!!!! i love when they talk and ask questions about God. melts your heart!
