| | | What a 5yr. old boy says: (our 5yr. old anyway)
Let me share with you what David said to me today: David: "Mom, I don't want to do children's things anymore, I want to do
adult things." Mom: "oh?...Well..what adult things are you thinking you might want to do." David: "You know...buy guns and stuff."  And I'm trying to teach him phonics!!!

He can name ya just about every military aircraft there is, hopefully he'll be able to read about'em some day!
On a side note: just last night, this same child wanted to know how it was that Jacob, who loved God, could still sin. And how is it that daddy and mommy can still sin?
The Lord really knows which children to give to whom to keep us on our spiritual toes eh? 
David doesn't leave us lacking for material! |

Sounds more like quality time with a brother-in-love 
And I hate to spoil it for David, but given the height of his parents, he may grow to be too tall for a fighter (my brother wanted to be an F-16; his myspace has a song about it that perfectly fits his situation. But since he is too tall, he is a contract pilot for them...delivery in small craft).
And hey...I can't even call out for "Steve" at church...not without a fifth of the men turning to look!
