Conversation With A 9 Year Old

Recently my 9 year old told me she wants to be a missionary when she grows up. I thought that was pretty cool. So 2 days ago she says she either wants to be a missionary or a flight attendent.

So..

I say, "why a flight attendent"

9 year old, "because you get to go places"

I say, "missionaries get to go places too"

9 year old. "I'll have to think about that"

9 year old, "Mom do missionaries get paid?"

I say, "of course they get paid"

9 year old, "Who do missionaries work for?"

I say, "who do you think they work for?"

9 year old, " oh yeah, Jesus, duh."
