Ashes to Ashes
After his first day at vacation Bible school, my boy informed me, “Mom, did you know that we’re made of dirt?”
It took me a moment to realize that he was referring to God creating mankind from the earth. I guess they modified the story a bit to help first graders understand it. “In a manner of speaking,” I told him, not really wanting to get into cells and tissue, etc.
He lost his second tooth today and when we were discussing the Important Topic of what the tooth fairy would bring him, he pondered a moment. “You know. I never realized that God made the tooth fairy, too,” he said. “Do you suppose she’s made of dirt?”

Sure…the tooth fairy is made of tooth dust and Santa is made of soot.
Both are dirt like, right?
Your son is a hoot - you must spend a lot of your evening after he’s in bed (and it’s safe) laughing.

Sometimes, I think the best part of having kids is the LAUGHTER. I am always astounded by the end result of their thought processes.
