Out of the Mouth of Babes!

You never know what your 5 year old is thinking,nor ever ready for what they say...

I was bathing the boys,and I was asking Mason aboutsomething,and we got on the Subject of Snakes. I do not like this topic,but I can't change it..

He asks:" Why don't snakes have legs"..Ooh! An easy one...

So, I told him the story about Adam and Eve. How the Serpent(which is what it called ,before he was not nice)had tricked Eve into Eating the Forbidden Fruit.

That Adam and Eve had a Beautiful land that God created Just for them, and they always had plenty of food,because took good care of them. Then the serpent came along,and he wasn't very nice to Eve.

The Serpent told Eve she could Eat from that tree,and she would be like God, and that Eve thought that would be neat!(reminder,I have to change the big words to 5 year old words) So she shared that with Adam, so they ate the fruit. And then All of a sudden they has some feelings,that they never had before,and its called "Ashamed" and i told him what that meant. And thats how the Snake came about! He lied,and was very mean, so Gog made him walk on his belly.

Mason pipes up"If I was Adam, I would not of eaten the Fruit. so I asked Why? Because a girl told me too. Well! I am a girl,I tell you what to do..Its different, your a Mom. Ooh! I said....Well we do what God says, right! Right! he says....I just let him think that no little girl will tell him what to do.. and maybe he won't get in any trouble...LOL These girls these days....Its scary...
