Lessons We’ve Learned from our Kids

7-8-07 Lessons #5

1. Highlighters are non-toxic but extremely messy when bit just right.
2. The liquid inside of glow sticks is also non toxic, but makes a child’s mouth look really, really creepy.
3. All songs should be sung at the top of your lungs even if you don’t know the words.
4. The "happy birthday song" is applicable on all occasions, especially Sunday morning worship if you apply lesson #3.
5. The alphabet song can be substituted for the Birthday song in a pinch. Again, apply lesson #3.
6. Libraries have a sense of humor. Sign #1: “Please maintain a quiet atmosphere for our patrons” Sign #2: “Children’s section this way”.
7. Squirt guns will never go out of style.
8. Question: “Jeremy, how do you talk to God?” Answer: “With my mouth.”
9. Under the right circumstances, a 35 lb child is capable of producing 4.86 gallons of barf in a very short period of time.
10. Their names aren’t “Superman” or “Batman” daddy, its… “SEWER-man” and “BAD-man”!
11. When the car ashtray is vacant of coins, don’t be surprised that the CD player no longer works, the AC vents rattle, you hear at least three clanks the next time each window is rolled down and the seat belt will not lock into its designated, “quarter sized” slot.
