i have to share the convo i just had w/ my 5-yr old cousin Jackson:

Jack: "watcha doin?"
Nick: "reading a magazine"
Jack:: "hey, that man [in the magazine] has his hands in the air."
Nick: "do you know who that is?" [its a pic of Jesus]
Jack: "its the priest saying prayers"
Nick: "that's very good, buddy"

then i patted him on the head and he walked off :) that made me really happy, to hear that response :D:

That's very cute, Nick! :love:

One of my friend's little boys announced to her when he was 5 or 6 that he wanted to be a priest. When she questioned him further on it, she learned that he wanted to do that on weekends, then deliver pizza during the week, because priests don't do anything during the week.

She quickly corrected his misconception. :lol_roll:

I guess he'd be number 1 on the short list of chaplains for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. :D:

kids are the best!

I don't know how long it took me to explain to my oldest that the priest was not actually Jesus, just sorta a representative of Jesus. He would say hi to the priest by saying "Hi Jesus!" for the longest time...

LOL kids are fun that way...

Me too! I babysit a lot, especially for homeschooled orthodox Catholic families. One little boy, who was 2 recognized St. Michael on my St. Michael medal. He then went and found his book about St. Michael and made me read it to him. Kids are amazing!
