Here's the bedtime conversation between Joel and Silas:
Silas: "I was faithful at church today!"
Joel: "Oh? What does faithful mean?"
Silas: "It means you bake someone a birthday cake on their birthday..."
Joel: "Oh, that's nice. What else could you do that is nice?"
Silas: "Gordon was nice when he pulled Thomas out from the smoke and fire..."
Joel: "You're right. What could you do that is nice?"
Silas: "I could pull Micah out from a puddle when a snake drags him in."
Joel: "You're right. You probably could do that."
Yes, we're teaching our children lessons with an exceedingly limited scope.
