Chris Mueller used to say that children were little sinnerlings. Nobody had to teach them to lie; no one tells them to be disobedient or selfish or mean. They're very obiously born with a sin nature. Joel is certainly proof of that. I was getting out his bigger clothes and had a stack of pants on his shelves. He came over and started to play with them, and I told him not to touch them. He looked at me, turned back around to the stack of pants, stuck out one finger, and poked the top pair of pants. I pretended I didn't see it and walked away. He's such a little sinnerling.
