On hearing that his babysitter that night is named Mary: He gets wide-eyed and says in an excited hushed whisper "Is it the Mary with baby Jesus?"
On giving presents: Coulson is not good at keeping secrets. Last year he told me what I was getting for Christmas less than 5 minutes after he came back from shopping with his dad. This year he's doing better. He waited a whole day before he told his dad what he was getting him. And when he was starting to tell me, I tried to stop him: "Stop! Don't tell me! Don't tell me!" I yelled. "But I have to tell you. I can't stop." So I stuck my fingers in my ears, closed my eyes and started to sing gibberish until he got it out of his system.
As we were wrapping a present, I decided to try another approach to help him keep a secret. "Coulson, do you know why we wrap presents at Christmas?" "I don't know." "Well, take a guess, why do you think we wrap presents?" He thought for a little bit and then replied, "Because that's what Jesus wants us to do?"
On omnipresence: "Hey I just thought of something - You know how God is with everyone all the time? Well, how can there be so many Gods?"
