Milk, Honey and the Insights of Children

My husband shares this story about Ria when she was perhaps four or five years old.

While reading from the Children's Bible to Ria one day, I stopped to check her understanding of the story. "Do you know what 'Flowing with milk and honey' means?" I asked.

She thought about it a little longer than expected and astonished me with her answer:

"There must be lots of grass and flowers."

Wow! That's a bright little mind, but then, that doesn't surprise me. :-)
