Where's Kevin?

Ok, so last night, a conversation about God, which is always interesting with a 2 yr old.

It was bedtime, she was laying there with her standard 7 blankets "wrapping" (covering) her, clutching her angel doll and trying desparately to stall her actually having to fall asleep. She started saying "Grandma" then "Where is your Grandma?" Sofia doesn't have an "official" Grandma, so naturally she has attached herself to the word. She has also figured out that if she starts asking questions and acting cute, I will stick around, hence stalling bedtime, smart cookie that she is.

I said "She's in heaven..." So that started an age appropriate explanation of "Heaven." It was quite humorous, with Steve backing me up from the other room, a la Cyrano de Bergerac. We coverd a whole litany of things from "Heaven is where the angels are" to "Heaven is in the sky, beyond the clouds" to "Heaven is where God lives" which of course, started "Who is God?"

She took this information in, excitedly talked about angels a bit more (she is really on an angel kick lately - could be because our friend calls her "Angel Girl"). I announce it's time for her to go to sleep and in desperation, she cries out "Where's Kevin?" I laugh and say "What? Kevin? Who's Kevin?" It took me a few minutes to realize she was asking "Where's Heaven?"

This morning, the first thing out of her mouth was "The angels are hiding behind da clouds!"
