I'd heard this before, so I replied with the standard, "Sugar and spice and everything nice, of course!"
"No, no, no!" she reprimanded. "God made boys from the dirt, and He made girls from strings."
HUH?? I couldn't help but laugh in response, and so did she.
"Where in the world did you learn that, Caroline?"
"Daddy taught me," she said.
Later on that day, I asked Shawn about his Biblical teachings, and apparently Caroline got her story a little mixed up. . . she understood God making Adam from the dirt, but I guess she didn't quite comprehend Eve being made from Adam's rib - ribs. . .strings. . . no difference, right?
Out of the mouths of babes. . .
