Dinosaurs and the Cross

Recently I've had some good laughs while reading friends' blogs. I love hearing the sweet as well as the funny things little kids say.

So here's a new one from Seth that combined a little of both....

One evening I was laying with Seth in his bed. I was just about to get up to go down stairs when he suddenly sat up and looked at the space between his bed and the wall . He peered at the dark space a little closer and then asked me if there were dragons back there. I told told him that he didn't have to worry, there were no dragons back there, and in fact, there were no real dragons at all. This disappointed him for some reason. He asked if they were in Indiana (where did he come up with Indiana??). I said no, there are no dragons on the whole Earth, just like there are no dinosaurs on the Earth anymore. Curious, Seth asked where the dinosaurs went. I told him that all of them died a long time ago.

"On the cross?" Seth asked.

"Um, no honey, the dinosaurs did not die on the cross....."

(I turned my face a bit so he wouldn't see my silent chuckle. To my relief, that was enough information about dragons and dinosaurs for him, and he changed topics.)

Oh, funny little ones. :o)
