When I grow up.......
This is a conversation between two 5 year olds (one of them being mine) that our Primary Pres., while working in the school library overheard yesterday........
Friend- "Avery what do you want to be when you grow up??"
Avery- " I am going to be a missionary."
Friend- " a what?"
Avery - "a missionary"
Friend-" What the heck is a missionary?"
Avery- "It is when you go and tell people about Heavenly Father and Jesus and the Holy Ghost. Then, you give them a Book of
Mormon."
Friend- (pause) "I think I am just going to be a police man."
Great job Avery! You always worry when someone comes to you and tells you they need to tell you something funny your child said. This time, it brought tears to my eyes!
