Mya has a doll house that she absolutely loves playing with. Recently, she had her 3 infant babies, 3 kids, and 1 teenager all sitting in one room. Vermon joked with Mya, "what on earth are there 3 babies for? 3 babies at once is crazy!" Without skipping a beat Mya looked up at Vermon and said, "its okay Daddy, I use some of them as foster kids." Marcel often asks newly weds at our church how long before they will have a baby or adopt some kids.
I love that they play, think, and speak this way. I love that they assume couples will adopt one day and that they see foster care and adoption as natural as having babies is. I pray they continue to grow up with this attitude and that us adults would shift our thinking to match theirs!
