Just So I'll Remember

If I don't blog the random quotes from the days, I'm sure to forget.

August 14, 2011

Eleni has a way of asking very random questions out of the blue at bedtime. Especially questions she knows I'll take time to answer.

Tonight we had just tucked her in as "Pocahontas". I turn off the light, and as I kiss her on the forehead, she asks, "Why did Jesus make a rope to scare the people out of the temple?" I am struck dumb by the question for a few seconds.

I explain several times. When she is finally satisfied with the answer, and I step toward the door again, she asks, "Why did the wicked men kill Stephen?"

(She has been reading the New Testament picture book to herself during Sacrament Meeting).




Nash: Where da moooon go?

Mom: I don't know. Where is it?

N: It play hide and seek!

And then Nash proceeds to count to twenty and say, "Weadier not, here I come!"
