Reflecting on the sermon and the concept of children living life with purpose and meaning even now (as opposed to waiting until they are grown-up), I asked this question to the boys:
"So, what happens when kids play video games all day long for their whole childhood?"
Miles didn't miss a beat, "They go to hell."
(Not what I was looking for!!! I was thinking more along the lines of "wasting time".)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Miles heard me ask Brent about my friend, Marty.
Miles: "I always think of someone fat, when I hear 'Marty', even though I know Marty is skinny like you, Mommy."
("skinny like you"? Thank you, Lord, for sons who say such things!!! Oh, and Marty is totally a skinny name...not fat at all.)

I'm laughing. Out loud. Again. The "hell" comment. That is so something Jeneva would say too. Where do they get that? FEAR!
I am loving your last several posts. But this one totally made me laugh. Thoughts on the PB& J post: Good for you for being willing to pick up a total stranger for church. The social worker in me is loving how you are spending time reaching out to the disenfranchised. BTW, I almost called you today to remind you to call me for my birthday :)
