Last week we were driving home from dinner. We were listening to a CD that we got for Cooper that has songs that the preschoolers will be singing during their preschool choir presentation. As part of the CD the story of Jesus is told and at one point it talks about Mary and Jesus being at the inn when Jesus was born. If you remember last week, at this point things can go in any direction with Cooper.
Cooper: Mom, do girls have to be married to have a baby?
Me: Mom? (I mean, he asked her so I thought she should handle this one.)
Allison: Well, it's best if girls are married before they have a baby.
Me: God says he wants us to be married before we decide to have a baby.
Cooper: Yep, and not everyone should have a baby!
That, my boy, is very true. And more insightful than you even know! These questions are something else. I am often amazed and the questions he asks. While they are many times tough to answer on a 5 year old level, I appreciate that he is very inquisitive and honestly wouldn't want it any other way.
