Caleb has been asking a lot of deep questions lately. They seem easy enough on the surface, until you try to answer them. Especially in a way that a four-year-old can understand.
Here are some things Caleb's been asking/saying this weekend:
1. Where does God live?
2. We sang "Jesus died for all the children" at church today. Why did he do that?
3. Is He still died? (Caleb's words)
4. I love God sooo much! (So do we, sweetie, so do we!)
5. As I was praying with Caleb tonight, I asked him if he wanted to say it by himself. He did, so he started thanking God for his bunk bed, his reward chart, his stuffed moose. He said, "Thank you for..." and paused, so I filled in with, "...always being with me." Caleb replied with, "No, it's just furniture tonight, Mom. And soft things." :-) I was unaware it was "thank God for your furniture" night. I stand corrected.
Caleb has such a sweet heart, and it is a joy to watch him grow in his knowledge of our Savior. This time surely cannot be wasted.
"How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands." ~Psalm 119: 9-10

What a sweet child. I miss him so much (the rest of you too.) These are the moments that you lock in your heart and treasure for the rest of time. They help you get through the tough times. Love you all! Kay
Wow, this is awesome! I am so glad you are keeping a written record of these conversations.
Very powerful post! Caleb has got his wheels turning and in the right direction too! I want to grow up to be a mommy like you!
