When Jesus went to minister to the Irish
We went to Pickles' good friend, Chan's baptism yesterday. It was beautiful. There were sweet talks by the Grandma and the boys' previous Primary teacher. The littlest brother and I said a prayer. After the baptism, as Chan and his dad were changing clothes and drying off, we watched a video about Jesus. In the video you see Jesus acting out scenes from the New Testament. He gathers his flock, he blesses children, he heals people wearing rags. At one point, Pickles leans over and asks, "Are those the leprechauns he's helping?"
No baby, no. They're lepers.
Have you ever had to explain the difference between leprechauns and lepers?

Classic!
It was a nice baptism!
PS Oh and leprechauns wear green pointy shoes, lepers do not.
HaHaHa! Please give him "the look" from me. Did you bust out laughing?!
It is hard to tell the difference until you steal their pot and see if it is full of gold or white linen bandages.
That is AWESOME!!! WE love Pickles so much- wish he would have said it louder for the rest of us to hear :)
And the prayer you said with Nooshie, was just the sweetest. Thank you. I am so glad you came to be a part of it.
Curly, lepers can't wear pointy shoes, not after a while anyway
Eve, I will give it to him for you
Charlotte, ewwww gross...bandages
Mama H, I'm glad we could come. I'll help Nooshie be included anytime.
