Another bible school lesson

Esme:  Mama, did you know Jesus lives way up in the sky?
Me:  Like up in heaven?
Esme: Yeah
Me: Yes, yes I did.
Esme: With Mary and God…did you know that?
Me: Do you know where else Jesus lives?
Esme: Where?
Me: In your heart.
Esme: What? (paired with a  look of utter disbelief) He does not live in my heart…with God…and Mary?
Me: Well, not with Mary.
Esme: Where does Mary live?
Me: Well…Mary doesn’t live…she’s dead.
Esme: Mary? Jesus’ mom? She’s not dead.
Me: Yes, honey, she died a long time ago.
Esme: No she didn’t. She lives at bible school….you just haven’t met her yet.

Seems bible school could be a bit confusing.
