...because He was there too

Jacob gets to color during Sacrament Meeting, after the blessing and passing of the sacrament.  Today, he was working really hard on this picture of Jesus being baptized by John the Baptist.  I wasn't paying much attention, but after several minutes of working and talking to himself, he wanted my attention.  He pointed out Jesus, and John, and then, pointing to the blue stick figure on the right, "...and this is God, because He was there too when Jesus Christ was baptized." He was so matter-of-fact about it too!    Then he made some marks ('writing') above the stick figure's head that started out "This is my Beloved Son..."

When he finished this masterpiece, he moved on to another lds.org picture, and used a pencil to put "Power Ranger masks" on everyone.  It was a short, but sweet moment.  It's always nice to get a little feedback that your children are learning good things from you and from Church.  If you saw how 'busy' Jacob is during Primary, and Family Home Evening, and Family Scripture Time, you'd understand why these little moments with him take me a little by surprise.  Except that they happen often, so in that way, it's just part of who he is.
