asking great questions

I had my debut acting performance at CLA... my big five lines... which was just fine with me... coming off our big youth convention weekend. My daughter Summer (5) decided she wanted to stay with mommy in big church. So she got to see me on the stage acting... my big part was coming out of the tomb... not a Jesus... but as an investigator who discovered the linen strips that wrapped the body and the burial cloth on his head.... all folded neatly and left behind... (that was my second line almost verbatim) Summer had so many questions of what else was in the tomb... it was great to talk to her about that... in fact after lunch we went back to the church so she could look inside... to her amazement and disappointment it was mostly 2x4's ....
She was asking so many great questions... it made me think as adults are we still asking a lot of questions. I read somewhere a while back that you ask more questions between the ages of 3-7 than we ask the rest of our lives... I want to keep learning and growing... I want to be the one still asking the hard questions about the mysteries of life... and hopefully be able to answer some for others.
