What Question would you ask God?

Okay, so my students can obviously tell that I read....a lot. Every day, in every class, we read for 15 minutes. I love this! This new schedule, where as with the old we only read one class period a week for 45 minutes, lets me read so much more. Last week, I read three books! That doesn't even count my at home books. Those were just my school books. It is crazy!
Anyway, the kids ask questions like: Have I always been a reader? Did I like to read when I was little? How many books have a read in my lifetime? Stuff like that.

A few days ago I had a conversation that went like this:

Student: How many books have you read?

Me: I don't know...a thousand.

Student: How many words do you think you have read?

Me: A billion?

Student: When I get to heaven, I am going to ask God how many words/books you have read in your lifetime?

Me: Soooo, when you walk up to the pearly gates, the first thing you say is going to be: Hey God! I had this crazy 8th grade English teacher who read all the time....how many words/books do you think she read?

Student: YES!


With just my ability to read, and read, I have moved my way up on someone's list...Waaaay up! I am the subject of the first question that they would ask God. :o)
