An Early Morning Conversation With a Very Religiously Confused Boy

Mommy, for your birthday, let's go to a bakery to get doughnuts!

Ooh, good idea! But they might not be open because it's Easter.

It's Easter!? TODAY?!?

Yep.

Why don't we celebrate Easter? I want to!

Well honey, we are Jewish and Easter is a Christian holiday.

We are part Jewish and part Christian.

Actually, no. We are ALL Jewish.

But we celebrate Christmas.

*long pause*

Hmmm, ah yes we do but that's because we believe in Santa.

*another long pause*

Oh. OK.
