This morning I had to explain God to Abby. Well, actually I had to try to explain on very basic levels that I was not God, nor was Jessica.

She said, “Daddy God.”

To which I replied, “No.”

“Mommy God?”

“No. God is in charge of the whole world. The bunnies, the flowers, people, everything.”

That was apparently all she needed because she then moved onto playing with the blocks. Being a parent is incredibly humbling. I am responsible for the care and education of this little girl while she’s in my household and that’s a mighty big responsibility. I’m sure in her lifetime she’ll wrestle with many of the things I have and do wrestle with, but I hope that by the grace of God we’ll do an incredibly good job so that some blessed guy will marry a well educated, wonderful cooking, godly woman [Cooking is a pretty high priority for me ;)].
