Out of the Mouths of Babes...

My youngest daughter Abigail, who is three, was dancing and singing along to the Koinonia High School advanced class dance "You are Worthy" and she started singing enthusiastically "You are Woody, you are Woody, you are Woody!!!" After I stopped laughing and wiped my eyes, I explained to her that the word was 'worthy' and what it meant. I'm not sure she understood or even listened, since she and her sisters were all excited about practicing their dances for a program tomorrow night. I may have to do some more explaining on that one. Kind of goes along with the kid who thought a certain hymn title was "Gladly the Cross-eyed Bear".

That's funny!

My son once asked me to play the song about "free the muscle." I searched around on the car's CD changer until I stumbled upon it: a cover of Dobie Gray's Drift Away. The line goes "free my soul."

It's funny how kids don't expect things to make sense, and so accept such strange things without question. Maybe its because so many things grownups say don't seem to make sense anyway.
