Engineer is into his calendars these days.  While looking at April today, he suddenly exclaimed, "Oh NO!  Easter is on a SUNDAY!"

I told him that it always was.

"But I don’t want to go to church on EASTER!  Why can’t it be on…. Wednesday?"

So we had a chat about why we celebrate Easter.  That it was about Jesus.  That we celebrate his resurrection.  Jesus=Church.  Easter Sunday. 

"I don’t want Jesus to die on Easter."

Well….

"Oh I know.  I have an idea."

He became satisfied only when he wrote on the calendar that there would be an Easter egg hunt the Saturday before Easter Sunday.  He asked about Good Friday.  Mormons don’t really celebrate it, so I didn’t know what to tell him.

This kid is so literal that it both irritates me and cracks me up.
