Ganesha

We were having breakfast yesterday in the Oberoi in Agra.

I think Kiki said something like, "What's bigger than the Taj Mahal?"

Ellie responded, "God is bigger than the Taj Mahal."

Charmed by Ellie's answer (she gets zero influence from us - her spiritual connection is deep and inate), Katie smiled and purposely threw Ellie a zinger, "Do you think God is a Hindu?"

Ellie fell silent, her rational mind tripped up by Katie's question.

Nobody else spoke for a few seconds.

Then Declan pipes up....

"The Elephant God is Hindu."

The kid is SMART.
