Today, I was explaining to the kids that this particular man I was going to discuss had two wives. I paused just a second to see how this would sink in. Most of their eyes got real big, you could almost hear the hamster wheels turning in their little brains. Suddenly one precocious 5 year old raised his hand as high and straight as he could, and when I nodded in his direction, he exlcaimed "I have two grandmothers!" Of course, he added a nice visual for all of us by holding up two fingers. Others nodded and mumbled agreeing that they too had more than one grandmother. I replied something to the effect of that being almost the same thing and moved on with the lesson.
Practically the same, really. I love Sunday school with little ones.

ReplyDeletePreschoolers are the best! I was getting a little impatient with one of my newer preschoolers as he kept crawling under tables and picking and eating his boogers last week and I sighed a little too loudly apparently, because one little boy says, "Ms Sarah, are you going insane?" Oops! Oh yeah, and when they tell you stuff about their parents. That's good stuff too!
