Talking

Some pictures of a conversation between Hunter and I. We were talking about, well, lots of stuff. The beautiful leaves. The contrails (airplane trails) in the clear blue sky. I just love his smile, his beautiful little laugh, his animated facial expression. Talking, always talking, about God, about creation, about man. And that just about covers everything.

"My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly."

Job 33:3

Hunter is 3 years, 7 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."
