I'm constantly amazed/amused at what comes out of these kids' mouths. Yesterday Sean was leading family worship, and the conversation turned to the story of Jael. We talked about the story and Deborah's song afterwards. 9yob says: "That song is imprecatory, isn't it Dad?" Giggle--this from a child who needs constant reminding to chew with his mouth closed and zip his fly.
Our older girl (almost 6), had a toenail injury recently, and was reluctant to allow me to put antibiotic ointment and a bandaid on the wound. It looked like it might be getting infected, so I told her that it was important to treat it so the infection would not spread, and Daddy happened to mention (in his "why have children if you're not going to mess with them?" way) that if the infection spread too much, the doctor would have to take her foot off. She SPRINTED into the bathroom, and underwent treatment. HOURS afterwards, she asked me if she "barely made it in time" to get the ointment on...she thought another few seconds would have meant a lifetime of hopping. Poor girl.
Children are great. |
