Elliot Pascoe’s Blog

Sometimes as a parent you are left without words. How do you answer the unanswerable question ? How do you give a proper answer to a question that just makes you want to literally laugh out loud ?

Let me explain why I seek answers to these pressing questions.

It seems Elliot has gotten the message about God’s creativity, well he is at least chewing the idea over in his head anyway.

We were recently looking at a beautiful sunset and Elliot was wondering where it came from. I thought it was helpful to say that the sunset was God painting the sky.

We knew that Elliot was seriously considering the sunset story when a few days later, after sitting on the toilet like a big boy (i.e. no booster seat) a little face peered into the bowl and looked up and asked “Papa, who painted my poo ?”.

So you now understand about offering a serious reply to a question that makes you laugh out loud.

I’m not sure that I was in a state to give an acceptable reply.
