God's favorite color

Abby tried on the bodice of her first communion dress today. A gentleman from our church is making the dress for her, and he brought it over today just to make sure it fit. It's going to be beautiful.

I was tucking Abby in bed tonight, and she asked me why her dress had to be white. Not wanting to get into a discussion about the symbolism of the color when it was already past her bedtime, I just told her it was a tradition, just as wedding gowns are always white. But Abby had a different idea.

"I think white is God's favorite color," she said.

Kids often have insight that we adults can only dream of having. :-) I think she is right.
