"Leah, God tells us that we have to obey."
"But bugs don't obey."
"You're right, bugs don't obey. But we aren't bugs, God made us special, right?"
"Yeah, but God made bugs, and bugs don't obey, so I don't obey."
"Well, you're not a bug, you are a little girl made in God's image. That means God made us to be a little bit like him. And he wants us to obey him."
"But God can make bugs into people!!!!!"
"Yes, he can, but he probably won't."
"Why!!!! Why won't God make bugs into people?"
"Because he made bugs to be bugs and people to be people"
"Can I have some gum??
"Sure."
That child is HILARIOUS!!! The way her mind works is just so fascinating. She makes some valid points, too....
