Raising the liturgical child

I believe Kimberly has mentioned in a previous post how Elias will recite little bits of church liturgy at home. Most of the time it is fairly context-free, he is just randomly saying something he heard recently. But after reciting the baptismal covenant at church this morning, I got hear this little gem:

Me: If you cannot be careful with that toy, I am going to take it away and you won’t be able to play with it anymore.

Elias: I will … with God’s help.

I had to turn away to conceal my silent laughter.
