It is always fun to hear little ones’ perspectives about the world around us. Check out this video as this young man hilariously explains school to his adorable little sister.
A brother and sister are seen seated at their kitchen table eating breakfast. The boy replies that if his sister goes to his class, she will “have to stand at the TV and say the pledges, there’s a man on there, he’ll tell you what’s for lunch, and you’ll have to pray.” He comically tells her that the man will tell her stuff she doesn’t need to listen to because it’s for the big kids. It is precious. He tells his sister that when she turns five like him, she will be in 4K. The little girl excitedly agrees.
He tells his sister there are no swings at the 4K playground because it’s the big kid’s playground. The little girl looks dissatisfied and confused. They finish their conversation by saying that his sister will go to his school one day when she grows up, but not now. It is hilarious listening to these two young siblings talk as if they are grown-ups. The 5-year-old Jack describes himself as a big kid.
Hearing Jack’s sweet point of view makes us laugh. He takes his school very seriously and feels proud to be a part of the 4k. He is so complimentary of the morning routine and the playground. He gives his sister something to look forward to as she “grows up” and becomes a 5-year-old one day. As believers in Jesus, we are His precious children. Sometimes, we might feel more grown up than we are, like this little boy, but the Lord sees us and smiles as He loves us and is helping us mature in Him each day.
“Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.” John 1:12-13
