Elizabeth was ready with her item, but Joshua had to do some preparation.
So, Elizabeth went first.
She began to read a story to me. The descriptions were amazing, and the storyline captivating. As I stood there listening, I could not help but be very impressed with the exceptional writing. And, although I was sure of the answer, (because she was reading off of the computer) I asked, "Did you write that?"
With a great big smile on her face, Elizabeth said, "YES!"
I could tell Elizabeth was proud of her work.
Then Joshua came bounding in to tell me he was ready to show me his thing. And I followed him outside, to see his vinegar/baking soda bomb. I didn't record Joshua, but there are plenty of them on Youtube. Like this one:
Joshua was bursting with excitement over the explosion, seeming just as proud of his creation as Elizabeth was of hers. And I had to laugh, as I considered the completely opposite works which produced such similar joy in my children.
Boys and girls are, indeed, created differently. I think God was having fun when He was thinking us up! *grin*
...aaaannnnddd I think God gets lots of laughs out of His prized creations. I know I give Him plenty of opportunities for a good belly laugh.

ReplyDeleteLeah - When I think of the joy in my heart as I'm laughing about something my children are doing, it makes me smile to think that God might have a similar joy when He laughs about His prized creations. *grin*
ReplyDeleteJodi - Such a joy, indeed!
