We all went to church tonight. When we got into the car I asked Molly what she learned in her class. It went something like this:
“You know Saul and Abel?”
Me: “You mean Cain and Abel?”
“No. Saul and Abel were in a fight.”
Me: “You mean Cain and Abel and Cain killed his brother Abel?”
“No…one was hairy and they tricked their dad.”
Me and Josh: “Oh, you mean Jacob and Esau?”
“Yeah. Jacob or Esau was hairy…Esau or Jacob was hairy….or Jacob or Esau…ummmm….”
Josh went on to tell the story a bit and help her out. I had not a clue from the start that she was headed to the story of Jacob and Esau. BUT, I am glad she is learning….in her own special way.
