The time that Sam saw GOD

Once upon a time I went to pick up Logan and Sam up from school, (and for those that don't know - our kids attend Catholic elementary school) and Sam was in 1st grade, it was his first year there, he was a "new student"... 


So anyway.  I stood in the gym waiting for them to be dismissed, and as I waited, I chatted a bit with the teachers and Father Tom while I waited.  Father Tom was munching on an apple as we chatted.



Eventually the children were dismissed and we headed out to the truck to head home.

On the way home, I casually asked, like every other day, "How was school today boys?"

Logan said, "Good..."

Sam said, "Good... I saw God."

I answered, "Um... you DID?"

He said, "Yep!  He was there today!  He was in our classroom."

And once again, just like many times before, my heart swelled as I was sure my child was gifted.  I mean, holy crap, my child SAW GOD.

I continued the conversation, saying things like, "Yes, God is all around us all the time..."  and blah blah blah and I eventually blurted out, "So what did He look like???"

And Sam answered, "Well jeez mom, he was right there in the gym with you ... talkin' to you and eatin' his apple!"

If you are as confused as I was, please refer to the second paragraph of this story.

And yes, I totally emailed a copy of this to Father Tom.
