Kristi's Kwips - Out of the mouths of babes...

Aug. 1, 2007 - Out of the mouths of babes...

At church on Sunday, Bubba went forward for the children's story. There were only two kids including him this week, so I'm sure he felt compelled to talk more to make up for the lack of kids. The preacher was doing a wonderful demonstration about all the things that we do in our days. For each activity he was putting a packing peanut in a mason jar. He started listing the things that we do each day...eat breakfast, get dressed, brush our teeth, etc. Then he says, "And you go to school." Bubba quickly pipes up, "I don't. I'm homeschooled." The preacher says, "Yes, but you still do school." Bubba responds in a matter of fact tone, "Nope. We just play all day." How wonderful!! I love that he feels that we are "playing" when we are really learning!!

Well, we're off to "play". Have a great day!

Aw, that's so cute! :-) It's so interesting to see what kids come out with, isn't it? Did you get any kind of reaction from the other parents when Jesse said that?
By the way, I came across your blog as I was 'browsing random blogs' and had to say hi!
Have a great day!

I think it is rather cool that they actually enjoy the "playing" at home. My children have said similar things and the looks we get sometimes. LOL. :) we just have to laugh. Thanks for sharing.
