God's Art Class

Tonight, Littlest Babybird and I watched the sunset together. It was stunning, quite a show. Pink, then gold, then purple, then deeper pink again.

Mom: God's painting the sky.

LBB: Yep.

(Long pause)

LBB: We're in the painting too, aren't we?

(More silence)

Mom: Yep.

(Thinking, as I say it, "Indeed we are, little one. Works of art, still in progress.")
