Avery goes to a private Christian pre-school and she loves to tell me her Bible stories, with her own embellishments added in.
I had to share this one:
"Mom, did Maw-Maw die?" She asks me on the way home from school.
"Yes baby."
"Did they nail her to the cross" she asks
"No, baby, they only did that to Jesus" I explain
"Yeah, they nailed Jesus to the cross....and then they shot him..." she says confidently, nodding her head in agreement with herself.
After laughing so hard that I was swerving on the road, I collected myself enough to explain to her that there were no guns around when Jesus was crucified. But now she says it to make us laugh.
She walked into our office the other day and told my father-in-law all about Jesus’ shooting.
I wonder if it was a drive by? Or gang related? The Apostles versus the Philistines rather than the Crips or the Bloods?
