When Bart was a little boy of about three, Kung Fu was a very popular show on TV. He is the perfect example of the fact that parents should moniter what their children watch. Those of you who remember the show know that their were good messages of morality and honor - - - -BUT he did have a good old kung fu fight each week too and Bart liked that MUCH more than he should have.

One Sunday, we went to church and I was talking to one of the priests and Bart hauled off and yelled Kung Fu and kicked him in the leg. He was immediately excommunicated. (Not for long of course.)

Later, at an Ascension Thursday service, all of the children were given balloons and after the service, were supposed to let the balloons go in a beautiful symbol of Christ rising to heaven. It came time to release the balloons and Bart said quite firmly that "God can't have my balloon." And God didn't either.

Have a good day
