"Unawares"
|
Sometimes we have deep discussions in our family devotions; edifying, encouraging and educating each other. But then there are days like today when we read Genesis 31... (for reasons that will be obvious, the only identified speakers are Sophia and Daddy. Just imagine the rest in the general "hub-bub" that it was) Sophia: What does it mean when it says, "and Jacob stole away unawares from Laban"? --I hate it when someone steals my "unawares"! --My unawares are always missing! --Me too! --Well, I happen to know that ____ stole your unawares! --_____! How could you?!! --Well, you had 3 pair and I had none and I couldn't find any anywhere! And wearing the same pair of unawares for days was kinda gross! All: Ewwww! Daddy: Hey!!! When we first moved here, and I finally had a real job with a real income, we had a big Unawares-buying spree! We all went to WalMart and got new unawares! How can you not have any? --(said very seriously) Daddy, I really think we have an Unawares-Thief! Sophia : Can we please get back to the verse?!********** And here's a short conversation I had with Ethan: Me: You really seem to like that new bathrobe I got you. Ethan: I love it! ![]() Me: That's wonderful, especially since I only paid $0.05 for it at a garage sale! E: Wow. If I were limited to only one digit, I would have at least picked a 9! Me: thinking, Did my 7 year old just say "limited to only one digit"?! |
