So tonight before putting Adam to bed, I decided for scripture study I would help him memorize "The First Article of Faith". Seemed like a great Idea....WRONG!
Me: Copy what I say, alright. We Believe in God, the Eternal Father
Adam: We bewieve in God, the INternal Father
Me: And in His Son, Jesus Christ
Adam: And in His Son, Jesus Christ...Oh mommy I know who Jesus is!
Me: Good Job! And in the Holy Ghost.
Adam: No Mommy! Ghost's are scary! Is it like a spooky Halloween Ghost?
Me: No, he's a nice Ghost and helps us to be safe and happy
Adam: So the scriptures are all about scary ghost and mean people, huh?
Yeah, so this went on for quite a while until I was able to convince Adam that the scriptures are not spooky....
I just had to laugh!

That is really funny. You should submit it to Overheard In The Ward. I think it would be a great addition. Overheard In The Ward
