I had a funny chat with Pip (4) and Izzy (3) this week. I was getting Izzy out of the bath. As I draped a towel over his head and wrapped him up he squealed, "I'm Noah!". By the way, can I mention how thrilled I am that my kids think of Biblical Noah and not spiderman, or superman? It does my heart good. At any rate...the cutest conversation insued. ...
Me: Izzy, what did Noah do?
Izzzy: Noah built the ark!
Me: Who told Noah to build the ark?
Pip: God!
Izzy: Jesus!
Me: Why did Noah God have Noah build the ark?
Pippa: Because of the flood.
Me: What went on the ark with Noah? *this got blank stares from the kids
Me: Did animals go on the ark?
*Pip and Izzy both said yes and started naming some of the animals that were on the ark.
Me: What happened to all the people that did not go on the ark with Noah?
Pippa: When the flood came, and they got washed and shrunk!
