06-00: First night outside the garden

We were trying to sleep when out of the darkness we heard a low growl. We thought it was dog but it was wolf! He seemed so friendly in the garden yesterday but now he was really mad at us! Eve screamed and I grabbed a branch from the nearest tree. Wolf jumped at me but I wacked him hard across the head with the stick. He went limp after taking a few last breaths. I guess this is what Father meant about death. We talked about it and realized that if we were to die tonight, we'd also be dying in our sins. We got down on our knees and prayed to our Father in the name of the Son for forgiveness for our disobedience. We also prayed for the female wolf who didn't have someone to come home tonight. We prayed for protection in this new world. I found it hard to sleep and had some ideas about things I could use to help protect us. Eve would wake in fits every few hours, so she didn't get much sleep either. Dog seemed very protective of us from then on. I guess he hadn't expected wolf to attack us either. The outside is much noisier than the garden. I kept hearing a "who who" noise and heard scurrying and other noises all night. Then this not-as-bright-as-the-sun-light appeared in the sky. That helped so I wasn't so afraid of all the noises I had heard. When Eve awoke next I asked her if she remembered what the not-so-bright-light in the sky was called. She didn't recall seeing it before so I named it moon.
