Child conversations

Today we went to a 3rd Birthday party for a friend. Happy Birthday, Alex!!! It was Josiah's first b-day party invitation. I was looking forward to seeing him try the cake, but he never did. And it was YUMMY cake, too! Oh well...more for Mommy!

While some of the kids were playing, I overhead this conversation:

Elizabeth: Does anyone want to meet my brother? (She said this every time he came back.)
Girl: [Sounding a bit surprised] That's your brother?
E: Yep
Girl: Why is he brown?
E: [With just enough sass] 'Cause that's the way God made him!

That's My Girl! I had tears in my eyes--both from laughing and from being a proud Mommy :-)

Elizabeth sounds like such a sweetheart! It's great to see how pure and innocent kids are. I wish more were able to stay like her, when they grow up!! :-)
