Happy New Year!

"Mommy, I want a fater," Rowan said.

Happy New Year! And thanks a lot Superman with your episodes of showing Kal-El living with Jor-El, his dad, and his mom on Krypton, then Jor-El sending him to earth where he was adopted by Ma and Pa Kent. Thanks for putting ideas in my daughter's head.

"Well, you should pray and ask God to send you a daddy," I responded, cool as a cucumber under pressure.

"Okay. I'm going to ask Jesus for a doggie and a kitty cat- -"

"God says, 'No, to the dog and the cat.'"

"Why?" she asked.

"Because Mommy doesn't like dogs and cats."

"Oh."


I am in awe at times at what TTT knows. It's not like things are secret. They know they don't have a daddy, but to hear them vocalize it is something else. Last year, when we Jory told his AWANA teacher, "We don't have a daddy!" I was shocked. I never thought about what he thought about our family. We just live our every day lives, but while I was living he was storing away info, watching, observing. Ready to answer questions that he thinks are directed to him about his family. It'll be interesting what other new tidbits, they will wow me with this new year.
