Hopping like a grasshopper

Behold, my crazy little boy, getting some pretty good air pretending to be a grasshopper. He's decided that these will be some of his new exercises 'cause it's good practice for his legs ("I've got strong muscles, you know.") He cracks me up, and makes me smile, all the time, here are some pictures of his bouncing body and joyful little imagination.

"And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation"

Psalm 35:9

Hunter is 3 years, 6 months old

Your Answer Defines You
"What can we do with thirty seconds? What can we not do with thirty seconds!... [Suppose] your little child looks out the window and sees a collie. 'What's that?' he asks you. You have five options, which will each take about thirty seconds to make stick:

1. We can tell him, "Look, baby, Mommy has to get dinner."
2. We can tell him, "That's a bow-wow."
3. We can tell him, "That's a dog."
4. We can tell him, "That's a dog called a collie."

The fifth option is to tell him that it is a dog called a collie and then go on to tell him thirty second's worth of information about that animal...

How sad it is that we put information into a computer with great skill and great precision and put information into our children's brains in a hit-or-miss, slip-shod, and often untruthful way."
