So this morning in catechesis the kindergartners had “open question” time.  Always dangers with kindergartners.  This morning was no different.

One child asked “Why did the devil make mosquitos?”

I replied that the devil didn’t make them; God made them.  As to why, I wasn’t sure, but I know He had a good reason.

Then another child raises her hand and says, “I know why!  God made mosquitos because we’re sinners.”

So there you have it.  Next time you’re asked why God made mosquitos….
