Lately G has been really interested in the Bible and going to church. Even though my husband and I don't have an active faith, we both agreed we would never deter the kids from exploring religion. Unfortunately, G asks a lot of really technical questions about God and what not that I just don't know how to answer. I told him the next time he saw GH's grandma, he should ask her about it, as she's an avid, but not fanatical, church goer.
When GH's grandma came up for a visit a few weeks ago, they talked a lot about the Bible. While we were driving to the beach, grandma began telling G the story of Moses. At one point she told G that Moses' mother taught him all about the faith and the history of the Israelites.
G thought about this for a moment.
"I bet she didn't have to tell him a lot of things. There wasn't a lot of history way back then."
Leave it to G to glean this piece of information from the story of Moses.

It's always fascinating the way little ones view religion.
If only the rest of the world would see it so practically.
