Kids say the most Amazing things!

My children continue to amaze me with what they say. We're past a lot of the cute, funny toddler just-learning-to-speak things, and now they are amazing me with who they are. Here are a couple of conversations I had today.

In the car:
K: Mom, I read "Biscuit and the Baby"
Me: Wow, Kyler, that's great!
K: I knew the first word was Biscuit, and I really read the other words! (this is a book we picked up today at the library, and he chose it to come with us to dinner).
Ilea: Kyler, did you read it, or just memorize it?
K: I read it!
I: (after a pause), Ok, I will beleive you Kyler. Good job reading those words!
M: Thank you Ilea, that was a nice thing to say.
I: That's because I'm a good big sister, and that's what sisters do!


Later, just Kyler and I were in the car. Remember, he's only 4.
K: Mom, did the people who killed Jesus love God?
M: That's complicated, honey. They thought they did love God, but they were afraid of Jesus, and so they killed him.
K: But it was a good thing.
M: What was good about it?
K: He had to save all our sins, and so they were really doing a good thing. And God knew it would be OK and he [Jesus] would be alive again.

Kyler really has some deep thoughts sometimes. They both are wonderful, amazing kids.
