Religious education...


A conversation in our house this week...

O: Mummy, what colour do you think Easter is?

Me: Well, yellow I think. All the Easter chicks and the daffodils...

O: (cutting in) Mummy, daffodils are not Easter. Anyway, I think it's brown.

Me: Oh, OK...

O: For the Cross and for the crown of thorns...

Me: (eagerly) And the chocolate eggs

O: (with a look of haughty and pitying disdain): Mummy, I am talking about the TRUE meaning of Easter...

Me: Oh, right. Sorry about that....

I was definitely put in my place....
