God Made Adam First

A friend told me about this recent conversation with her three-year-old grandson.The scene is in Grandma's car, after she had picked up her grandson from his parochial preschool.

Grandson: "Grandma, I know who God made first!"

Grandma: "Who did He make first?"

Grandson, proudly: "Adam!"

Grandma, equally proud: "That's right!"

Lengthy pause.

Grandson, puzzled: "Adam is in my class, and he's not very big. It seems like, if God made him first, he should be bigger."
