This is a conversation I had with Makenna tonight before bed:
Kenna: "Mom, I wish I was a prophet."
Me: "Why do you wish you were a prophet?"
Kenna: "So I would never do anything wrong." (She is still fresh from her baptism and wants to be totally clean and perfect all the time.)
Me: "Do you know that prophets aren't perfect? Who was the only person on this earth to ever be perfect?"
Kenna: "Jesus."
---Connor pipes in--
Connor: "Plus, only men who have the Priesthood can be a Prophet."
Kenna: "Nu-uh!"
Me: "Yes. That's right."
Kenna: "What about Rosemary?"
Silence.........crickets chirping........more silence.....I'm racking my brain trying to think of a Rosemary from the Bible.....
Kenna: "Remember, in conference???!!!! Rosemary, she spoke at General Conference!!!!!"
Lightbulb moment!!!!!!
Me: "Oh, you mean Rosemary Wixsom, the Primary General President!!! Oh, she's not a prophet, but a very wise and loving woman."
It was so funny.
