Tonight at church:
Little A., watching intently..."Mom, are those God's kids up there?"
Me, in church mode, "We're all God's kids, Little A." Then it dawned on me...perhaps he thought the priest was "God" and the servers his "kids", so I asked,
"Little A., who do you think that guy in the green is up there?" (Aside by me...yes, I know I should have been paying attention...but we were discussing big things, Little A. and I!)
Little A., thoughtful, pensive..."Jesus?"
Then Miss E., grinning from ear to ear, overhearing Little A.'s queries..."Mom, so then...we're sisters?"
Think I should've answered the first question..."Heck no, Little A., those are the servers!!!"
Live and learn, my friends...live and learn.

So funny! Every Sunday at mass, when Fr. comes to the altar, my 3 yr old says (every.single.time), "Mommy, Jesus is here!" I guess it wouldn't be so bad if he didn't say it in his "big boy voice". lol
ReplyDeleteI have a great story about my sister talking to God when she was little, and when He wouldn't answer she yelled out "God is to dead!" That was after a discussion with my mom at church about God being alive even though we can't see him ;-) Gotta love kids!
