Conversation with Preschooler



Overheard today while out with my 4 year old Ethiopian daughter Princess Mercy...

"Are we alone Mama"
(we are in a car- me driving, her in a car seat that is getting too small)

me: "Yes, honey."

"Mama, can we go on a date?"

me: "Sure, where would you like to go?"

"Can we go to Starbucks?"

Ethiopia...yes, the birthplace of coffee.  (she had an apple juice)

******

then as we pull into the Restaurant Depot parking lot to grab some cases of yummy things I hear a very serious voice say as if in prayer...

"THANK YOU God!!"  (the girl loves food and shopping in bulk!)

post Starbucks:

"Mama do you think it is hot in heaven?"

me: "Why would you ask that honey?"

"Because it is much closer to the sun (Son?) there."  

me:  "I am sure that there must be air conditioning then."

"Oh yes!  
I am sure that there must be central air there."
