It's amazing to read and hear the twords of young and innocent children. It brings a smile on your face rightaway. I just recieved this mail sharing the letters to God of some of these wonderful children And here is what some of them wrote. [i]Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones,why don't you keep the ones you got now ? Dear God, I'm American, What are you ? Thank you for the baby brother, but what i prayed for was a puppy. We read that Edison made light,But in school they say you did it.So i bet he stole your idea. If you let the dinasour not be extinct, we would not have a country.[/i] It made my day, i'm sure it will bring a smile on your face too.

There are few things more refreshing to hear than the innocent and unadulterated musings of kids in my opinion! lol. In many ways, it's a shame that we lose this spontaneity and inquisitiveness as we age. I remember asking my own Grandmother what dinosaurs must have been like once! She was not amused, believe me! But as children, we were not concerned with the intricacies or factual information surrounding a subject at all. It was wonder and imagination that inspired us! Not such a bad way to be at all if you ask me.

Unless dinosaur qualities are explained by using the term "You cheeky bugger!" followed by laughter, then I don't think I got a description, no! Kids always make me smile too.

My niece, when she was 5 year old, was visiting us. My mom tucked him into bed after a series of stories. But she would not sleep! “Grandma, I’m not sleepy now,” she said. “Can’t I be nocturnal for just one night?” Now, what could you say after that! Today, as I was looking into my bag for the office key I found a piece of paper where a lot of words are scribbled. [i]Precripsion for Misti Take warm water in a bowl or your niece's playing set. Dip cotton peas into it till it gets like a sponje. Clean your boil with it 4-5 times till you feel good. Repeat this everyday to get rid of your boils. Thank you. Carry this in your purse so that you do not forget. [/i] Then she draws two faces. One frowning with a big boil on her cheek and another a happy face withot the boil! I am still smiling remembering that!

You are not the only one smiling at that. I have a broad smile on reading the prescription too. And the nocturnal bit. I'm just speechless. Actually not getting the right words at all to say. Thanks a ton for sharing this Mimpi.

Lucky you. I noticed the spelling mistakes as well. That is what makes it more special isn't it , the effort of children to say and do things in such ways that touch us deep inside. BTW how well are you doing in your report cards ?

And did you notice the spelling mistakes there! The pencil written real thing makes it all the more special. Will upload the page when I get time. Not only this, she keeps preparing worksheets, level 1, 2 3 for all of us and gives us report cards with smiley faces and beautiful comments! Its a lovely experience being with kids. every kid is sweet and special and its a bliss to be with them. Right now, I am feeling most blissful.

The letter came to my inbox before. It's really fun reading those messages. Sometimes kids make us think. They their young age they already have ideas and questions on their mind. It only shows that we children are ready to know God at their age. It is good to see children having a relationship with God already at a very young age.

yes...they are... yesterday, i asked my 3-year-old daughter to take bath herself without wetting her head and i was sitting in the hall...few minutes later, she came running from the bathroom to the hall saying, "mom, u asked me to not wet my hair, but the hair only started to bath without your permission", hope she accidentally poured water on her head (because she always listens to whatever we say) and she was so serious about it that we just couldnt stop laughing, but the best part was that, even after seeing us laughing so hard, she was so serious and went back to the bathroom, there are so many incidents like this which happen everyday, i am really blessed to have my daughter

LOL.... that kid is intelligent to be thinking at that level. I guess a young mind which is not binded by rules and ethics will wonder any place it wants thus will result in liberating thoughts. ^^
