More from the Mother's Day S.S. lesson


Zachary (3) was just coming downstairs carrying the hand vac. Juston (10) said that on the third step from the bottom Z sat down wearied and said, "God, help me." God sent help in form of Juston.

This was Autumn's Bible lesson on Nov. 18, 1992:

Mom: Where did Joseph of Arimathea take the body of Jesus?

Autumn(5): To a rock

Mom: Why did Pilate put soldiers outside to guard the sepulchre?

Autumn: They was afraid He would die.

Mom: Autumn, He was already dead.

Autumn: Oh.

Mom:Why did the women come to the tomb?

Autumn: To see Him dead.

Mom: No, they brought perfume... What did they find at the tomb?

Autumn: They found perfume.

Whitney (7): No, they brought perfume.

Autumn: Oh.

Mom: They found an empty tomb.

Autumn: But Momma, you just said He was dead!

We all laughed and I did much explaining. We went on.

Mom:What does 'much perplexed' mean?

Autumn: That they were very nice.

Mom: No...worried... What did the women do when the angels told them that Jesus had risen?

Autumn: They went to see Him.

Mom: No, they went to tell others. Should you tell others that Jesus is risen?

Autumn: YES!!!

Mom: What did Peter and John do when they heard Jesus was not in the grave?

Autumn: They ran to tell others!!!

Mom(laughing): No. They went to see if it was true. How long was Jesus in the grave?

Autumn: About a month and a half.

Mom: Three days and three nights, Autumn.

Autumn: Well, Mrs. Jonnie [her S.S. teacher] said about a month and a half or two months.

Mom: No she didn't. What is Easter about?

Autumn: God gettin' born.

Mom: No, that's Christmas. Easter is about how Jesus rose from the dead. Now, what is Easter about?

Autumn: God bein' a baby and gettin' on earth.




Zachary (3) had on an apron and wanted if off. He said , "Take my curtain off."


Jess was learning to ride a bike when she was about 5. She took off down her Granny Serritt's driveway and lost control and ran up onto the carport and crashed into the doorstep. Granny, standing at the doorway watching said , "Well, that was funny. Why don't you do it again?"
You'd have to know my mother to enjoy that one. She was teasing Jessica and Jessica loved it!
