My interesting conversation with Ben

Ben never ceases to surprise me with the things he says. Today he got up during his "nap" and had to use the potty. He was using the bathroom off the kitchen and I was making a cake in the kitchen when he says,

"Mom, did you know that I can hear Jesus talking to me all the time?"
"Really Ben, what does he say to you?"
"Oh, he says all kinds of things."
"How do you know it's Jesus? What does his voice sound like?"
"I know it's him because I hear him talk to me in my head."
"So what's something he's talked to you about?"
"Well, today, he told me not to eat fruit snacks anymore because they make my tummy hurt."

He went on to talk about something else and mid-sentence he stops and says, "Wait, Jesus is telling me something right now."
"What's he saying?"
"Oh, he's just talking about those fruit snacks again."

That kid makes me laugh!
