God's backlog

Today was pretty uneventful (not that I'm complaining). We went to Sams this morning and on the way it began to rain. Ethan's preschool is through a Baptist church and they talk about the bible and all things religious. Lately he has become very interested in God and Jesus, and almost everyday tells me "you know Mom, God can do anything". Well, today Ethan was particularly upset when it started to rain and he informed me "I'm praying to God so he'll stop the rain". I replied "OK, you let me know when he gets back to you on that". Ethan looked at me and said (with a sigh) - "well it's going to take atleast a couple of hours". I found this very amusing. It did stop raining - and even though it was cloudy and windy the rest of the day, it didn't rain anymore. So who knows, maybe Ethan's onto something:)
