It Is Good To Live With A Six-Year-Old
Aug. 23rd, 2007 09:08 pmThis morning, Jet asked, "Who made God?"
We said, quite honestly, that we didn't know. That there's some that believe there's always been and always will be God, but that it was a good question.
We had dinner at Country Buffet, and in the midst of our meal, the big bee mascot came to our table to sign for Jet to high-5 him. As the guy left, Jet said, thoughtfully, "I don't like it when people are stuffed."
Us either, kid.
At this particular moment, Jet is getting a demonstration of how the Sun makes for longer and shorter days as it goes around the Earth, with a flashlight as the stand-in for the Sun and his one dollar globe as the stand-in for the Earth. While we were thinking it all through, Jet said, "I bet the real earth doesn't have a big C around it."
I like having a kid that thinks.
While talking through evolution and "Who was born first?", Jet said, "Well... we evolved from animals and little plants and things, so it's hard to tell who got born first. I guess the president would know."
I wish.
( Read on about me rather than Jet... hmmm... or don't. *grin* )
