the Book of Mormon in the mind of a 3 year old

Yesterday Abby and I sat on the couch and looked at the pictures in the front of the Book of Mormon. She knew Jesus and Joseph Smith and then I told her who the rest of them were. When we got to the last one- Moroni, I explained that Moroni's daddy's name was Mormon, and this is his book- the Book of Mormon. I realize now I shouldn't have said it that way but she's 3!

So she said "Well, let's give it back to him." A few seconds later "...well, maybe we can share it."

Later that day she wanted to know when Jesus is coming to our house. What in the world do I say to that one? I just said "someday sweetie. someday."

When is Jesus coming to your house?...just break into song - "see the Saviour standing nigh watching over me...he is always near me, though i do not see him there"
