Today as Isaac did his quiet time, Ellie was singing the Bible verse, "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us."
Then she stopped. "Daddy, if you were going to punish Ami [our nickname for Amelie], would I ask if you would punish me instead?"
That's pretty good application for a 4-year-old! Isaac skimmed over that question and instead emphasized Jesus taking the punishment for us on the cross.
Then Ellie really brought the application home: "Or would I ask that you punish her instead of me?"
So much for congratulating ourselves in advance for good sibling relations!
