Cartoon: Missionary Gift List
From Mormon Life by Arie Van De Graaff
My 12 year old daughter, Soleil, just popped in to tell me that her younger brother, Ammon, aged six asked, "Why does Jesus have long hair?" She thought it was funny that he asked that and as she finished telling me and went back to Ammon I heard her say, "They didn't have scissors back then."

My mom and I took my 6 year old nephew with us to Sacrament over Thanksgiving, as we were babysitting him while his Mom was out of town. Jeremy didn't regularly go to church, but had been before and knew he was supposed to be quiet and reverent. He folded his arms during prayers and quietly colored the rest of the time. Right after the bread was passed he had a funny look on his face and motioned to me that he wanted to tell me a secret...I leaned down and he whispered, "that was pretty good but I wish they served cookies instead of plain ol' bread!"

A recent Thanksgiving sharing time was about gratitude. Each member of the junior primary was supposed to tell what they were thankful for, then the leader would write it on a turkey feather to be added to the turkey. The sunbeam class began, there was the usual, "thankful for my family, my pets, my house, my friends, Jesus and then one little boy said "the Hulk"!

My sister and I were picked up from work by my nephew one evening and upon arriving home we noticed my brother-in-law cleaning coolers, pots and the front yard. We couldn't believe our eyes, even my nephew who did a second glance said, "I better repent quick, it must be the second coming, uncle is cleaning!"
--Anna Afuvai, Oakland, California, USA
In Primary today the Presidency member was giving the spiritual message in sharing time discussing the miracles Christ had performed while he was on earth when one little boy commented confidently," that was before he was crossified."
