Expository Thoughts of a Three-Year-Old

This morning we read Psalm 128 in our family devotions.

1 Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in His ways.
2 When you eat of the labor of your hands, you shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.
3 Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine in the very heart of your house, your children like olive plants around your table.
4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord.

Upon hearing this, Hannah blurted out:

"Look! One of the olive plants is having some grapes!!!" --- referring to the fact that Mommy was nursing Caleb.

After rather amazed laughter on Peter and my part, and continuing giggles from the girl (who was quite pleased that she had told a really good joke), we sat there amazed that not only is she listening, but understanding, analyzing, AND developing a sense of humor. To God be the glory.
