My families adventure on the road to oz via Germany

Kids and their questions

07:25, Mon 5 February 2007 .. 0 comments .. Link

Today, my kids got all intellectuall at the dinner table. It started like this.

The eldest(8 yr old) asked how do we know there is a God, how can we see him. My middle son who is 6 said , when the wind blows thats God blowing his air out. Then the youngest at 4 yr old, asked is santa Gods relative as he knows everything. I just looked confused wondering where they had got this conversation from.

Then the kids asked me if God can see all the world and can speak all languages so that those people who pray can be understood. I tried to give what i thought was a reasonable answer. I said God can understand everyone no matter what language they believe in.

Then the eldest (im sure he is trying to show his brothers how thick i am) asks is God one entity or does he come as many. Now im flummexed and change the subject, by asking if their tea was nice.

Im sure when i was a kid that i never asked my parents such strange questions.

 

Later on the boys are back to thir normal boyish selves, battering each other determined to be the top dog.
