Just another typical Monday, where we have to stop by the Church so my Mom can take care of - whatever it is she does there.
Lucky for me, I saw the big man, "Fader Len". I don't get to spend too much time in his company on Sundays due to my parents' lack of tolerance for my enthusiasm in Church, as well as his obligations talking on the stage at the front of the Church. So I had to run up to him & yell, "FADER LEN, NICE TO MEET YOU." It is, after all, my favorite greeting.
Then it was off to the office of the Church Ladies. My Mom usually lets me carry the "paperwork". It's all very official, so naturally she trusts me with only the most important tasks.
If I haven't mentioned it before, the Church Ladies LOVE me. Of course they do, what's not to love?
I made my customary entrance, yelled, "HELLO, LADIES", and after getting my usual sucker and cheek pinches, they asked if I have been a "good boy" this year.
(By the way, what is it with everyone asking if I've been good?)
Then one Church Lady asked, "Is Santa coming to your house on Christmas?"
My reply, "Dat Jesus' Birfday".
Lady, "And Santa comes, too."
Me, "Happy Birfday To Jesus!"
Lady, "I guess you're right."
You guess?!?
Aren't you a Church Lady? Shouldn't you know such things?
Leave it to the children to school the Church Ladies.
Now THAT should count for some of those "good" points.
