"Avaisms"

While eating breakfast Ava asked me "Momma, why did God make me a girl?" I replied "because he wanted to make you a girl and you are very special." Ava said "I'm going to ask God why he made me a girl." "Okay" I said. Ava looked up toward the ceiling and said "God, why did you make me a girl?" After a moment she looked at me and exclaimed "I can't hear Him!" I explained to her that as she gets to know Him better by praying to Him and learning about him, she will learn to hear Him better. I really wanted to say "Sweetie, welcome to the rest of your life! You will often think you can't hear Him."

Ava asked again and then got frustrated that He wasn't answering her! What a sweet moment.
