Our Son the Theologian

On the way home from school today, out of the blue Josh asked me "Was God the first person to be born?" Not knowing exactly how to respond to this, I told him that God wasn't born, he has always been alive. He wanted to know how that could be, and I just said that there are some things that we can't explain as humans and that is one of them.

Fun at Fry's

We have been thinking about buying a Wii for awhile. Stan saw an ad in the Fry's circular for Wii at the regular price (the key is that they actually had some in stock), so we decided to go and get one for us and the kids for their birthdays. We were standing in the checkout line and Katie gets sick multiple times. Everyone was staring and some people were coughing etc. because of the smell. The two young asian female employees seemed helpless and just stood there staring. I asked if they had the powder that you sprinkle on body fluids, but alas they didn't understand what I was asking for. I ended up wiping it into a smaller area and covering it up with paper towels, holding the wet and sobbing Katie, while the other customers watched. What fun times!
