Thank you for your articulate post. It's hard to put in words sometimes. You are so right. When my kids ask me where they came from (one is still too young for the talk), I always tell them they came from God. :) It's not a lie, ya know? LOL

God deserves every bit of the credit for that post, He gave me the words.

Telling them they came from God is the perfect answer. It's absolutely true, acknowledges they were made in His image, and reinforces their value in His eyes and yours. What a lesson in self esteem that is!
