...should sometimes stay shut.
Today in Primary I was teaching a sweet little lesson--with help from puppets named Ella & Bessie--about the importance of using good words. Giving the children different real-life scenarios, I asked what they should do.
"What if I drop something heavy & it falls on my foot & it hurts really bad? Is it okay to say a bad word, like such a bad word that I don't even want to say it in church?"
Big-eyed Primary children around the room solemnly shook their heads 'no.'
My darling Mia pipes up from the back row.
" I know what bad word you would say! It's ---"
Red-faced Mommy rushed to shoosh her while every other grown-up in the room lost it.
Life becomes so much more transparent when you become a parent.
