She excels at non sequitirs.

After saying prayers tonight, Charlotte asked, "What does 'God Bless' mean?"

I told her, "It means, 'God, please watch over this person I'm mentioning.' "

Charlotte 's next question - "What does 'amen' mean?"

"Uh, it means 'the end of this prayer.' "

"What is a prayer for again?"

"It's for thanking God and maybe asking him to take extra special care of someone or something," I said.

"I can see in the dark now.  I ate lots of cherry tomatoes."

Thanks for lightening the mood, babe.
