Yes! I really enjoy the questions and then the challenge it is for ME to try and find a creative meaningful answer!! LOL
For example, when my 2 yo really wondered what God looks like, does he have feet, how can he be all around all the time if I can't see him....etc. I found myself enjoying coming up with answered that helped him grasp the concept- so I told him how the air was around, we can breathe it, the wind blows and we can feel it, but it's not visible- and related that to God- satisfied him for a while- but I DO love their questions! smile
