So that's how it looked
Driving home today with Liliana we were watching the sun and clouds. She says "Papi, those clouds over there, they are all yellow the way the were in Jesus day"
Hmm.. "So were the clouds yellow when Jesus was born?"
"No Papi, when Jesus went up to heaven that's the way it looked. It's in the Bible. The picture shows it that way. The yellow clouds and the big white spot!"
OK... some work on editions, textual verification, hermeneutics.... All coming up for my 5 year old.

Yes, our kids have pointed out similar clouds spurring a similar conversation while in the car before. I have to admit, sometimes the sun shining through clouds like that does look a little bit like heaven trying to reach the earth. (I won't go into all the theological implications and biblical discrepancies there.)
