Using Her New Knowledge

With Easter coming up, Sadie has had a lot of questions about the atonement and the crucifixion. I used the parable of the bicycle yesterday morning to try to explain to her how the atonement works.
- A little girl wants to buy a bike, works hard and saves all of her money for a long period of time, and is still far from having enough to pay for the bike. Her dad steps in and pays the rest.-
I could tell that Sadie really grasped the concept by the questions and comments she made during our discussion.
This morning, she decided to use her new found knowledge.
"Mom, I think I am going to save all of the money I can to buy a zhu zhu pet. You can step in and pay for the rest."
