Sunbeams!

I teach the Sunbeams in Primary. That is the 3-4 yr. olds. They just crack me up every week! Today when I showed them a picture of Mary expecting a baby and asked them if they knew who this was, Alexa said: "That is Mary and she is going to pop Jesus out of her tummy." Then they were teaching about our bodies being Temples and to treat them with respect,,, no drugs, alcohol etc. Cooper said: "Elvis did drugs and now he is in Heaven." Brother Bracken came into Primary and was talking about Heavenly Father, and that we Have two Fathers, Heavenly Father and our Fathers here on earth. I could see this one coming! Hands shot up and kids were saying...."I have three Dads". "I don't have a Dad". So Brother Bracken had to just say: "Yes some of us may have no Dad or Three Dads, but we all have a Heavenly Father". Kids are just so honest. Where do they come up with stuff??? It is just hilarious!

Heidi,
Love it! I remember teaching that class, and what an absolute hoot they were.

Heidi-
I do not know where Cooper comes from, but he cracks us up on a daily basis!
Just today he asked me when I thought he would go to heaven-I told him I hope not for a really long time!
He said I know but it would be SO good to be up there with Jesus, bear (our dog that died) and grandma, but down here there's you, dad, J, sis, and harley. It is just so hard to decide!
