First Words

Don’t worry.  Sophia’s not talking back to us quite yet.

The first words out of Caleb’s mouth this morning when I went to get him up were, “Jesus is alive!”  Said with an exclamation point of course.  Last night before bed we read about Jesus’ resurrection.  I guess it stuck with Caleb all night long. 

I love that Caleb is learning simple (but powerful) truths about God.  God is big.  God made everything.  God loves me.  Jesus is alive!

When I push Caleb in the swing, we play a game that goes something like this: 

“Caleb, who made the clouds?”

“God.”

“Who made the trees?”

“God.”

“Caleb, who made the sky blue?”

“God.” 

“Caleb, who made you?”

“Mama.”

“Nooo. God did.  Who made Mama?”

And so on.
