Mary looked at her husband, who looked back at her. He said finally, "This is really happening, then." He turned to the young child. "Do you not think that this means we will not go to that big city you saw as soon as we might have."
"It will not have to be the soonest time, when there is an occasion there, but you should have us go the soonest time it can be managed."
"So if we are going to have a new child, it would be after that one is born."
"You will know the right thing to do, when it is time. You have been managing well."
Mary's husband fell silent. Lately, speaking with this child was not like speaking with a child at all. He then said, "Yeshua, are you hungry for a morning meal, now?"
The child nodded and Mary said, "I will have food for us ready right away!" She sprung away right then.
Her husband, still looking at this young child, thought to himself, sometimes he is just like any child. But he doesn't do everything other children do and speaks with understanding things no other children do.
