Difficult Questions

Yes, I am slacking- Linda put me to shame. I will get around to actually taking photos so I can post some this week. Grandma is visiting, so we should be able to get a few! Anyway, Jay turns 4 in a couple of days and his questions are getting more and more complicated. Here are a few:

J: Mommy, did God make everything?
D: Yes, he did
J: Who made God?

D: Uhhhhh.... that's a question that some grownups spend all their lives trying to figure out. Nobody really knows.

J: I think God built Himself.

J: Mommy, is Opa in Heaven with God?
D: Yes, he is.
J: Is your Grandma in Heaven with God?
D: Yes, she is.
J: Does she know Opa? Are they friends?

D: *Gulp* You know, there are so many people there that they might not know each other yet.

J: Mommy, does Nikolaus bring me presents?

D: Yes, he does.

J: And Santa too?

D: Yes

J: Are Nikolaus and Santa the same person?

D: You know, everyone has a different idea about that. Some day you will decide on your own if they are the same or not.

J: What do you think?

D: That's private, you need to think and make up your own mind.

J: The Christkind brings presents too.

D: *Loud sucking-in-air noise*
