There were quite a few 'funnies' at church today. Our lesson for the 7 year olds was on preparing for baptism. I asked the bishop to come in and talk to the kids about baptism and a little about what to expect at their interview. What followed was a pretty entertaining discussion with the present 7 year olds. At one point the bishop talked about being honest and never commiting crimes. He asked if anyone had been to jail. Somehow the conversation turned when one of the girl's hands shot up in the air and said "Well sometimes it is ok like if you take from the rich to give to the poor." Bishop talked about how we shouldn't steal from anyone, but the girl stayed firm in her love of Robin Hood. The other one took place in sacrament. A couple talked about faith and both mentioned that they will be getting sealed in the temple this year. The girl got teary because she was so happy. Her counterpart mentioned it as follows: "Like my wife mentioned, we will be getting sealed for time and all eternity later this year......That's like......long."

From the mouths of babes. Primary has got to be the best calling in the church.
Gotta love little kids! Tell the little girl to start watching Veggie Tales instead. Their new movie Robin "Good" fund-raises from the rich and gives to the poor!
