Upon Viewing the Christus



After sitting quietly and looking for a few minutes, Owen seemed very impressed.

Owen: Mom, I think I'm on Jesus' good list.
(long pause while he reverently stares at the statue again)
Owen: Yeah, he's going to bring me lots of presents and....oh, wait! That's Santa, huh, mom, not Jesus? Then where's the real Jesus? I want the real one, not the statue one.

I'm not sure whether I should be impressed with myself for making sure Owen had plenty of talks about Jesus as the reason for the season back in December, or if I should blame myself for an obvious lack of clarity. I certainly have my work cut out for me on this one.
