God in Olivia's eyes


Conversation with Olivia:

Olivia: "Mom, what does God look like?"

Me: "I don't know Olivia, I guess what ever you want him to look like."

Olivia: "I want him to be a girl, I want him to have a dress on with long hair in braids and look like Rapunzel and I want God to be down here and not in the sky."

I wasn't really sure what to say. I guess I could have shouted "WOMAN POWER"! But didn't think it was appropriate. I did tell her that God is down here and he isn't in the sky. I told her that God is in all of us....In our hearts and in our minds. I said he watches us like Santa Clause watches us. He can see us and be with us all the time.

Olivia said, "Will he be here for my birthday."
