Having been raised in a Christian Science Sunday School...

Having been raised in a Christian Science Sunday School, my only expectation for our first child was perfection! I don't remember when I first noticed what seemed to be a deformed foot, but I did not accept it as the truth because of what I'd learned in Christian Science.

I called my mother, and we talked about God's perfect child. I don't remember the specific truths we discussed, but I knew my son must reflect the perfection of his creator. I didn't even notice exactly when the healing took place, since all we looked for in him was the spiritual quality of perfection.
