What 1st Graders Really Think About Moms

One year ago, I met with a handful of kindergarten kids — including one of my own — and asked them to share what they knew, felt and wondered about God. Their answers displayed a sense of spiritual maturity beyond their years, and the experience reminded me that not long ago they didn’t have to simply wonder about God — they lived with him.

Last week, I decided to bring Molly, Ava, Nathan, Jordan, Michael, Dara and Koleson together again for another discussion. Like last year, I did not tip the kids or their parents off on the topic.

One on one, with my camera rolling, we talked about Mother's Day and their feelings toward their moms.
