Kid quotes of the day
The moon was high in the sky this morning. Hanna saw it and said "The moon is very far in the sky and I can't reach it!"
I took John over to the park near Bunker Beach this morning. There is a Veterans Memorial there. Hadn't seen it yet, so walked up there. It is reminiscent of a fort, square, with two concrete stockades. There is a tank parked there too.
I told John this memorial is to remember and be grateful for all our soldiers, like in our family. John asked "Are we soldiers?" I said no, and John said "We're not soldiers? We're friends?"
Ah, the minds of children.

Just run into this from the Protest Warrior website and admired the joy of being a child.
Children do grow up in body and intelligence but not in spirit.

As you have delightfully told us, they can be a means of God meddling with our adult cages.

Good grief, what a story that was.
My kids are a constant reminder to me of what is truly of lasting value in this world.
