Kenna subbed for a friend in a Sunday School class with kids ages 6-10 years old this morning as a helper. The class was learning about Queen Esther and part of the lesson was acting out the account. The girls in the class were supposed to act like they were presenting themselves before the king....they walked in a circle around the room and the boys were supposed to pick a new queen. I know, that sounds a little dangerous...like arguments could arise among the girls over not being chosen, right? So, the teacher had already tried to address that by telling the whole class who should be chosen and assigning them all roles to play. The girls walked around the room and stopped before the boys...BUT the boys decided to pick McKenna instead of the other little girl. The teacher stopped the role play and reminded the boys of who they were supposed to pick at that point in the story....and "Okay, let's try that whole thing again!" So the girls paraded around the room again and stopped for the "king" to choose one of them. He paused, then said, "Still McKenna." HAHA! What is it with boys and "older" women? :P The teacher was a bit perplexed....and Kenna was a little embarrassed, yet weirdly flattered :P Considering we chose a name for her that means, beautiful and blessed follower of Christ....this makes some sense.
....YET, we should never forget how stunning Esther's faith was :)
