The Haunting

As many of you who are familiar with our blog and our children know, Matthew is in a Baptist pre-school.  I think it's great.  He is in a place where our values can be upheld while he gets a decent education.  No problem, right?  You see, us "Mormons" don't do that whole crucifix thing and Matt comes home with quite a lot of them.  And then there have been some other questionable activities which I won't go into.  Some include praising Jesus in the loudest of ways, and talking about riding a car up to heaven to MEET Jesus and letting us know that he doesn't want to die on a cross, like Jesus.  It's not that it's wrong, just that it seems so foreign to us and as a result a little strange and off-putting as it doesn't seem to hold the same reverence that we are accustomed to.  Which brings me to my point.

Matthew has a craft that he made at school last week.  It's an angel.  But when you look at it...  well...  I just can't describe it.  It's probably the most evil and haunting thing I have ever seen.  It's unholy gaze burns deep into my soul.  I can hear its evil laughter as it plots my destruction.




I love you Matt....  But jeeeez!!!

That is frightening. I would have to "accidentally" lose it or spill kool-aid on it.

I worry about sending my kids to that kind of preschool for the exact same reasons. I'm hoping I can get a spot in the regular school's preschool program when the time comes. I still have another year or so though.

I agree- a little creepy... and funny! You need to come to Sonshine School- they don't scary things like that or talk about riding in a car to heaven.
