I went shopping today with two kids in toe. Alex was lagging behind a little. I walked around an isle and had to call for him to keep up please. Soon he comes tearing around the corner and says "Mom I saw a scary person who does not belong on this earth." Now before you judge him to harshly I must interpret for him "Not on this earth" means "Not in real life", or "Make-believe" for examples Superheros are not on this earth, Ghosts are not on this earth, neither apparently are witches, or Little old ladies who bare a striking resemblance to Snow White's Stepmother........
Where do I begin. I began telling him how not everyone looks the same, How Heavenly Father made everyone look different because it would get really confusing if everyone looked like Alex, And of course how Heavenly Father loves all of us and we should too, no matter what they look like.
Near the Cereal isle he whispers "Look mom, There she is"
A little old lady was walking by, she was short and a little hunchbacked. To me she looked very sweet. I think it was the shawl covering her head that made her appear too mistrusting to be of this world.
