Ah, good for Elijah!  Little ones know!  Years ago I was walking with blind 
friends who had two young girls.  For some reason only the second was with 
us and she was 18 months old.  Daddy had her on his back.  Her language was 
very faulting as they neared a hole, but she recognised it as dangerous and 
kept calling out "Hole, hole".  Daddy got the message in time.  I'll never 
forget that one and thank God for the safety He afforded that day through 
the little one!
