Once upon a time there was a baby called Einstein, not the famous one, but another. He was five years old and he wanted to know about life the universe and everything. But first he wanted to know what he was made of.
His father sat him on his knee and said "you are food, you are water and you are love." Einstein looked thoughtful. Okay, he said. "I can see food and water, but love, can I see that too, Daddy? "
His Dad grinned. "You sure can" he said. "Every time I look at you it will be there in my eyes, but most of all it will be felt inside you because that is how God connects to you and He is love. That's what makes all children so special, a gift of love from our Heavenly Father."
Einstein had lost focus, he was watching a dog run up the street without an owner... just as well, his Daddy was welling up and he preferred not to look too soft, a man can have some pride, right?
