From the Mouths of Babes

Little kids retain more than we think they do.

I was reading bedtime stories to Sam tonight. We decided that since it's now Sabbath (Friday night) we would read Bible stories. I chose a book that contained stories about Josiah, Esther, and Noah. When we got to the beginning of Noah's story, I asked Sam if she knew who Noah was. Sure enough, she did!

Who was Noah?
"He built the ark!"

Why did he have to build the ark?
"Because of the big storm that was coming."

Who went into the ark?
"All the animals!"

I was either going to cry or laugh. I had never stopped to even think about how much she remembers from Sabbath School. Maybe I should ask her about it more often. I want to know what else she knows!
