Conversations

*The conversations I had with a 6-year-old boy (B) and 7-year-old boy (J) today*

They usually don't give a crap about the actual lesson but today we talked about Solomon building the temple and for some reason these two boys were super into it, and one of them was drawing a picture to go along with it and he asked me for more of the story so I told them about Josiah finishing the temple except I got confused and said it was Nehemiah. Anyway then they wanted to act out the story and asked for my phone to film it.

Me: I didn't bring my phone. I don't bring it to church.

J: Check your pockets!

Me: I don't bring my phone to church.

J: Check them!

B: Yeah, you never know!

They would not rest until I checked every pocket.

Me: See? No phone.

B: Your jacket has an INSIDE pocket!! *points accusingly*

*Ten minutes later*

J: *out of literally nowhere* You know this class, we should take a field trip.

Options were discussed. B wanted the beach. J wanted "B-Town in Alabama" which, I'm gonna go out on a limb here, I'm pretty sure doesn't exist.

B: Oh! Or we could go to California! There's Legoland there!

J: Does this church have a bus?

Me: It does actually

J: We'll take the bus. You can drive us.

Me: *Explains CDL licensing and how I don't have one*

B: Then the person who owns this place can drive us!

Then somehow plans changed to calling a taxi instead.

J: How many Sunday school rooms are here? Can you count them? We'll need a lot of taxis.

Me: Wait, now we're taking the whole church?

B: *interrupting* What if the taxi man doesn't know how to get there?

J: You know taxi people, they know what they're doing.

B: Yeah, and they can look at a map on their phone.

*they end up collaborating to draw a chaotic but highly detailed map on paper*

Me: But where are we going?

J: B-Town, it's somewhere in Alabama.

B: No, California!

J: *ignoring him* Bring your phone or camera. We need to take pictures.
