On the bright side

One of the children at our preschool was coloring a picture of the symbols of baptism. When his parents asked him to explain what he had colored, he replied: “The Holy Dove, the Holy Clam, and the Holy Drips.”

After Sunday school one Sunday, I asked my four-year-old son Grant about the story they had learned that day. Here’s the exchange:

Grant: “It was about Jesus and Peter walking on the water.”
Mom: “Oh, and what happened?”
Grant: “Peter began to sink.”
Mom: “Did he sink because he didn’t trust in Jesus?”
Grant: “No, because he wasn’t wearing a life jacket.”
