A funny moment, or a tender one?

S has really been interested in Joseph Smith lately. We've been reading about him, watching movies about him, and looking at pictures about him. Yesterday at church he told DH that if he was praying in the woods and Satan tried to kill him, that he would tell Satan he was God. DH started cracking up in the middle of sacrament, only until late last night did I find out why. DH had to tell S that he wasn't allowed to tell people he was God. But in S's mind if he said that he was Satan would not try to kill him because God can do all things. This goes back to my post on the faith of a child. Things are so simple to kids. Say this, and this will be the result. Although hilarious that he would think of something like that, it was also another sign to me that children really do have great faith.

THAT is too funny! I love the things they come up with. He was smart to put the two things together. What a kid! You should be bustin' at the seams proud right now!
