conversing with God

Did i mention that toddlers are terribly cunning? mine is not only cunning, she still believes she's God (or at least, she loves pretending to be). One long trying afternoon, as I was trying to get her to nap, by pretending to sleep too (this usually works as she would look around bored, then fall asleep), the little one just refused to close her eyes. She was horizontal, but talking nineteen to the dozen...to herself. in effect, she was having a duologue with God, but you see, she plays both parts, her, and God.

In deep scary voice as God "Maeve, you were naughty just now right?"
in her own voice " yes God, I was bad"
deep voice "Then you need to apologise to mummy"
her voice "i know God, but mummy is asleep, so I can't say sorry."

Of course, hard to remain in a pretend sleep mode when these sorts of conversations with God goes on!
