Tonight at dinner, out of no where, Rance told his cousin Samuel, "Well, Jesus was married to the church."
Matt and I just looked at each other and quietly chuckled. Matt eventually explained that it wasn't a literal translation but an example, and what it means.
This isn't the first time our boys have said something they have heard or learned that while true, they don't begin to understand.
We still have a lot of packing to do...really more organizing than packing, but regardless, a lot to do. Hopefully it will go much quicker with three little ones in bed!
Cavin and I's after bath conversation...
C: God told Noah to build an arch...
M: Yah, would you build an arch if God told you to?
C: No, God tells us to do different things.
M: What did God tell you to do?
C: To move to North Carolina and make new friends, me, Rance, Carden, Mommy and Dad...
I am continually blown away by his understanding of God.
Last weekend all of my family came our way for a weekend of fun. Friday Matt and I took Rance, my brother and his wife their two oldest and my sisters to Six Flags. Rance and my niece and nephew had earned a free ticket again this year for reading. This made the third year in a row we have taken them.
This year we broke tradition and diss the water park first since in years past it had rained in the afternoon. Rance was tall enough to ride all of the water slides and I was surprised he did some of them! We did a big funnel one you go back and forth and Rance and Matt did a green one that is practically straight down! It was a fun but exhausting day!
Saturday we all headed to the zoo. It was a beautiful day and crazy busy. We have a zoo membership but the lots were full by the time we got there. We still had a lot of fun and was able to see a good portion of the zoo. The kiddos got to ride the carasoul, pet and feed the sting rays-maybe a shark too-and see the sea lion show.
We had all just sat down when a storm rolled through but we had the perfect seats and didn't get wet at all.
This is the only picture I grabbed on my phone as we were heading out of the zoo, Carden and Josiah were already headed to the car for much need naps!
