Caitlin: "Look. I drew little symbols for the religions on my chart."
She holds up a piece of paper. She places it back on her desk and stares at it for a moment. Then she looks up at me with a sly grin on her face. I brace myself for the Mormon joke of the day.
Caitlin: "Do Mormons have a symbol? Like, do they use the cross or something."
Me: "No. We celebrate the life of Christ, not his death."
Caitlin: "Oh."
I look away and sigh, grateful that the joke was innocent today.
Caitlin: "Look what I drew for Mormons."
I look at the paper. Under "Mormonism," she drew a bicycle.
I laughed myself all the way to AP Calculus.
