carnivores and candy

while praying with eli at bedtime tonight he interrupted me...

eli - how can God hear us?
me - well, God can hear everything. He can hear all of our prayers from heaven.
eli - wow! that's awesome! He can hear everything?
me - yep
eli - a tiger growl?
me - yep
eli - a candy drop (on the ground)
me - yep

so there you have it. if it were ever in question, eli's two favorite things are carnivores and candy
