Me: Well honey, God is already at your new house.
Samuel: He is? (a bit perplexed)
Me: Yes, God is always with you.
Samuel: Is God a man or a woman?
Me: Well, he's not really a man or a woman. But he's kind of like a Daddy. (I explain further)
Samuel: OK. Can Jesus come over my house?
Me: Well, Jesus is already at your house.
Samuel: He is? (a bit perplexed)
Me: If you ask Jesus to live in your heart then he'll be with you all the time.
Samuel: Where's my heart, Mommy?
Me: Right here. (as I point to his chest)
Samuel: Oh no, Jesus can't live there. That would give me a very big tummy ache!
Me: OK then, how about we ask him to just come be with us?
Samuel: OK, I can do that.

Oh, please remember this conversation when he is grown up! What a great story.
Micaiah doesn't get "asking Jesus into his heart" either. I know kids who do that when they are 3, but I don't think we're there yet. :)

How beautiful, Michelle! He is such a sweetie.
