Our 4 yr old going on 20 (Isaac Robert Smith) had some interesting comments this Easter. His Mother and him were shopping one day at the used and antique furniture store in Dallas where we live (she's getting him started early) and they came across a shell lamp with a cross in it. When he saw this "Christian icon" he said "look Mom, this is the time that Jesus died on the cross and was swallowed by a giant clam!!" My wife said the lady who overheard his pointed comment almost died laughing when she heard this new twist on Christianity. When she came home and told me what he said, my comment was,"OK no more Sponge Bob for him"!
As we were going to church Easter Sunday we were passing pastures and fields with various animals which we like to point out to the kids (probably because when we were living in the Bay Area there were only fields of buildings, bridges, houses, freeways and parking lots) so they can enjoy the beauty. My wife said to IRS "look at those little lamb's Isaac, they're playing with their Mother" Isaac quickly shot back in a dead pan tone, "yea I know Mom, we ate one of those for Passover."
