Ironic!

Our family is studying the D&C right now. Tonight we read about Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery getting the Priesthood from John the Baptist first and then later from Peter, James and John.
When I asked Mitchell which priesthood he was going to get next year when he turned 12 he proudly said, "I'm going to get the Ironic Priesthood!"
After laughing for a long time I tried to tell him that it was not the Ironic priesthood but the Aaronic Priesthood. He thought it was funny and assumed that they were always saying the Ironic priesthood because it wasn't the real thing....that the Melchizedek Priesthood was the real priesthood.
It is funny how you misinterpret things when you don't have the whole information!
