Today in the Yard

Hunter was so happy to get to play in the yard today. It wasn't all that warm, but warm enough to be bearable. And as long as it's bearable, there's just no stopping this little boy with spring fever.

He had a really fun time getting some fresh air, running around, and exploring his long-lost toys that have been buried for months in the snow and rain.

This is where we left a dis-assembled slide for a couple weeks.

"The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory."

Psalm 64:10

Hunter is 4 years, 1 month 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."
