So, a family friend stopped by this past weekend. We haven't seen her in a long time, and I am sure the girls don't remember her at all. This is the exchange that happened when Allie saw her walk through the gate in the yard.
Linn: Hello!?
Allie: (staring intently into Linn's face) "do you know Jesus?"
Linn: "well, I've heard the name."
Allie: "Yep, you know Jesus."
Linn: "you want some donuts?"
Allie: "sure."
So I say to Al later, "why did you ask Linn if she knows Jesus?"
Allie: "because she knows Jesus."
Me: "Why do you think she knows Jesus?"
Allie: "because she's special, and she knows him."
Well, I guess that clears that up. Incidentally, Linn claims never to have met the man.
