"I don't want to be a missionary!"

Funny little story about Patrick this week.

Patrick came out of primary class with a paper that replicated an enlarged missionary name tag with Patrick's name on it... when I asked him about it, he looked disappointed and said, "They did my name wrong!"

"No they didn't, bud," I assured him, "it says 'Elder Garner.'"

"That's not my name!"

I laughed, "Oh, Patrick, when you're a missionary, everyone is called Elder, like in church when we say Brother or Sister Garner. They will call you Elder Garner."

"Aw, then I don't want to be a missionary!" He was really upset, on the verge of tears.

lol That was just too funny... he'll come around soon, I'm sure.
