Eric and I have been serving in Children's Church once a month on Sunday mornings at our new church. It is a practice in holding back a laugh and a smile when kids get creative in their answers/interactions. For those of you who have never taught a kids' class at church, you should! It is fun and I guarantee you'll learn something-either about God or about kids! Here are a few of our favorite interactions:
Holly: ...and Mary treasured all of these things in her heart....
5-year-old boy: (interrupting with a pirate voice) ARRGH! TREASURE!
7/8-year-old boy: I've touched a million snakes.
Holly: Really, a million?
Boy: (concedingly) Well....maybe a few less than a million....
Eric: Tell me something you are afraid of.
8-year-old boy: Constipation. (I promise, he was totally serious. And really, shouldn't we all fear this? :)

Thanks for sharing - there is no humor like that that comes from a child....
You made me laugh out loud:)
Hilarious!
The honesty and humor that comes from children is so precious. I always enjoy reading your blog and seeing our darling GREAT nephews & nieces. We are having so much fun w/ baby Kelsey and watching Grace be such a wonderful big sister.
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CALEB! Have a fun time at Grandma & Grandpa Bodin's home today!
