Conversation

This morning as I was getting Ronan dressed we had an interesting conversation after he noticed for the first time a birthmark that he has on his upper arm. He was quite concerned about it.

Ronan: Oh, no, Mommy! I have paint on my arm...need to wash it off!

Me: That's not paint, that's a birthmark.

Ronan: Need to wash off the birthmark with the sink (meaning in the sink)

Me: No, birthmarks don't wash off. The birthmark is something that God gave you.

Ronan: God wash it off!



A picture from last summer showing the birthmark on his upper right arm. As you can see, it is no big deal - but to Ronan it was!
