My grandson, James, is growing up much too quickly for my liking. It seems like just yesterday I was holding him in my arms for the very first time, now he’s getting ready to enter kindergarten. He may be ready, but I’m not. People say it all the time, but I really don’t know where the time goes.<\/p>\n
A few weeks ago, he went to the school for his kindergarten screening. As with everything else in his life, he did it with the James flare and personality. He walked into the room and sat down with the teacher. He had a pencil firmly held in place behind his right ear.<\/p>\n
“Hello, James,” his teacher greeted him with a smile. “Why do you have a pencil behind your ear?” \nJames answered her very matter of factly. “I knew I would be doing some writing, so I brought a pencil just in case you didn’t have one. I wanted to be prepared.”<\/p>\n
His response set the tone for the rest of the screening, his personality shining through in his easy conversation sprinkled with jokes. When my daughter picked him up, the teacher, who had had my shy granddaughter a couple of years before, said to her with a laugh, “He’s no Julia!” Yes, my grandson’s personality once again took center stage.<\/p>\n
James entered the screening having thought things through a bit and carrying what he thought he would need. He was prepared. We have many things in life we must prepare for: a school test, driver’s test, job interview, and marriage to name a few. We study, practice, get advice, whatever we need to do to prepare. A lot of thought and time is spent preparing for so many things, but how much time and thought do we put into being prepared to answer questions about our faith?<\/p>\n
