The birth of Jesus
This cracked me up.
This last Sunday & Wednesday, Luke has been learning about the prophesies concerning the coming of Jesus that took place during the 400+ years between the testaments.
I was making signs with some of the prophecies written on them to put along one wall in his classroom. Examples: Soldiers will gamble for his clothes; His bones will never be broken; He is coming . . . You get the idea.
He's reading each one as it rolls out of the printer. He picked up the last one, laughed, and said, "My cousins will love this one." Why? I asked. "Because it says, "Jesus will be born of a Virginian. I didn't know THAT was in there!"
I'm still cracking up. I love this kid!

So did you get to explain to him what a "Virginian" is? I'd love to have heard that conversation! Luke always makes me laugh!
Yes, I always looked forward to those "teachable moments" with my own children. I usually learned a lot.
Okay, I can see that I have been missing a lot here. "Born of a Virginian" (or of a West Virginian, as the case may be). Very funny, and we feel loved that we came to his mind so quickly in this way!
