At our house at dinner time, we encourage Micah to eat meat and vegetables so he can be as tall as our good friend Steve. Almost always the conversation goes like this:
Daddy: Micah eat your meat and vegetables
Mommy: So you can be big and tall
Micah: Like Mr. Steve!
Mommy: Yes, just like Mr. Steve
(Amazingly, this line of thinking works better than any other tactic we've used to make him eat his food.)
So one day, he runs into my arms and says:
Micah: Mommy, I'm scared!
Mommy: Why are you scared?
Micah: Monsters!
Mommy: Silly, monsters aren't real.
Micah: But Jesus is with me!
Mommy: Yes he is, Jesus is always with you.
Micah: I'm not scared. Jesus is big and tall.
(after a long pause)
Micah: (Excitedly) Mommy! Jesus is taller than Mr. Steve!!!
Mommy: Yes, he is baby, Jesus is much taller than Mr. Steve. (He gets it!)
