"I asked for a car; I got a computer."

Looking for a commentary that uses big words and ponders the deeper meanings of various topics? Well...you've come to the wrong place. This blog is all about extolling the greatness of Christ, the joy of marriage, the rollercoaster ride called parenthood, the supremacy of the 1980's...and doing all of it at a fifth grade reading level!

Noah's View On Education

Robin and I have three sons. And the reason we have three sons is because....well....you know.

Anyhow, our three young men have brought considerable joy and laughter into our lives. They also often cause us to scratch our heads in amazement and wonder at the things they ask, say or do. Elijah is very perceptive and curious...and his favorite game is "Twenty Questions." The answer "Because..." or "I said so" just doesn't fly with him. He needs more data.

Jacob, mercifully, is too young to say anything more than "Dada," "Mama," "Ball," or "Hut" (yes, he's going to be a quarterback!).

And Noah....well....he doesn't say much. When he does say something it's either downright hilarious or makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

However, this week I learned that Noah has a future as a radio commentator or newspaper columnist. He speaks his mind - he tells you what he thinks. And you don't have to drag his opinion out of him.

This is supported by the attached picture. This picture is undoctored and unedited....but it quickly and clearly gives Noah's statement on education (Noah is on the back row - second from the left). Kinda brings a tear to my eye!

Jimmy Finney tipped me off on this one...he said that I had to read your blog. He said this entry was so funny that he was gasping for air!

Maybe Noah simply misunderstood when the photographer said, "Watch the birdie"...ROCK ME!!!
