From the mouths of babes.

I forget most of the funny stuff Joshua says.
It's a shame really, because he says a lot of funny stuff. (And it suggests I'm getting old, if I can't remember it!)
But a couple of recent ones:


Bananas are quiet, aren't they daddy.


Ow, my leg hurts. The penny is in my leg now. (If that makes no sense, you haven't read the story of the lost coin) There are lots of pennies in there.


J: Daddy, where does God live.
Me: Well, because he's not really like us, He doesn't live in a particular place. He lives everywhere - it's called omnipresent. Having said that, in His grace he does choose to manifest his presence at certain times and in certain places, but that's not where he lives. Does that make sense.
J. Yes, it does. It does.
(Brief pause)
J. No it doesn't. Daddy, daddy, it doesn't make sense.

(I'd just like to reassure you at this point, I do teach him stuff sensibly too!)

Me: Can you do a thank you prayer tonight?
J: I can't think of anything to thank for today. I'll do one on Wednesday.
Me: Uh, it is Wednesday sweetheart.
J: I mean the other Wednesday.


I keep meaning to write them down when he says them, so I can then blog them, but I don't. So many missed opportunities...
