i had an awesome 'dad' moment before taking the kids to school this morning.
our daughter (9 yrs old) was at the kitchen table working on vocab (the kids are in french immersion and with her class one of the things they do is write out the french word and then draw a picture that represents that word). matthew (7 yrs old) was finishing up his breakfast.
jordan asks: mommy, what does souffrir mean?
mom: that means to suffer or suffering
jordan: what does it mean to suffer?
me: when a bunch of bad stuff happens and it makes you sad, that's kind of what suffering is
jordan: well what can i draw for that?
matthew: i know! i know! you can draw someone in an oilers jersey!
man i love that little guy!! ha! ha!
