Worms....

A couple of days ago Keith and I were talking about animals. He was asking questions about animals and how we eat them. We were talking about how we only kill animals when we need to eat them for food. I explained that God gave us animals and we should take good care of them but we can use them for food only when we need to eat and that is the only time that we should kill them. In most cases we should not be killing animals unless we are going to eat them.

On to today's conversation. Keith was sitting at the kitchen table as I was fixing his lunch and it goes like this.

"Mommy, you know that Wyatt, well I made him go home yesterday." (Wyatt is the boy that lives across the street)

I say, "Keith, why would you make Wyatt go home, you like to play with Wyatt?"

He responds, "Well, Mommy, that Wyatt killed a big old worm and I told him he had to eat it since he killed it and he wouldn't do it. So I told him he needed to go home."

Let me say....I just about peed my pants I was laughing so hard! Kids say some really funny things!!

My child who can think quickly....

Keith has been learning at school about God & Jesus and how doing good things make God and Jesus happy and when you do bad things it makes Satan happy, and we do not want that to happen. He is just in K4 so this is a early learning situation and I know that his teachers have been doing a great job at explaining things to him. Well, last week I pick him up from school and for about 10 minutes in the car he goes over with me how doing good things makes God and Jesus happy but doing bad things makes Satan happy. When we arrived at our destination, I am getting the younger boys out of the car and I ask Keith to put his coat on. I had to ask him 3 times to put his coat on before I finally said "Keith you are not listening"....he shoots back, "Well, I am making Satan happy!". It was all I could do to not just laugh out loud right there! He is so smart sometimes!

Alot going on...

Okay, it has been a long time again since I have posted anything out here. Things have been busy here with my family. My Dad has been ill and has just gotten out of the hospital. He was having some problems with bleeding internally and they had to find the cause of the bleeding. In the mean time because his blood counts were dropping to much he did have to have two blood transfusions. They discovered that it was a bleeding ulcer and they think that they have it under control with changing some of his medications. In addition to this they have also discovered that his blood sugar was really too high, and continued to be too high. So now he in going to have to take additional medication to help regulate along with going on a diabetic diet. He is not happy about that but he will adjust I pray. The doctors are going to closely monitor him and he is going back to the cardiologist for a follow up this next Tuesday. I am going to go along to ask some questions of the doctor...that I know that my Dad will forget or doesn't really care to ask. I am just the pushy oldest child.... :-)
