I turned the TV off and told the big kids that they were welcome to stay and that I was praying the rosary. They didn't have to join in but I was saying it aloud. That helps me to focus. Jumba had a long nap that day so he was up still looking for attention. He climbed onto my lap and I began to pray. After the sign of the cross the next prayer is the Apostles Creed and I am suspecting that Jumba heard the words for the first time this night.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended into hell.
"What, mom stop, mom stop, mom you said God went to HELL!" Over and over again. Until after calming down the oldest crowd that was laughing very hard, I did my best to explain this and that after he ascended into Heaven but he was stuck on that line.
The next morning while the rest of the family was at breakfast he informed everyone, "Hey guys, God went to hell!" he said it just like that, I can't even imagine what is going on in his mind. "It's all over people, why bother!" He is a nut and we will continue to teach but this made us giggle.
