out of the mouth of babes: 4

Prayers at our house are interesting. We encourage the kids to not say the same things every time. (Although in every prayer he says, Christian asks that there be "no arguing or complaining.") We encourage them to say what they think and feel. That makes things interesting.

Last night I made mini hamburgers and mashed potatoes--Andrew was pretty excited that it was not my weekly vegetarian chili. It was his turn to pray. He ended his prayer with:

"...and thank you for this luscious dinner Mom made."

And then a discussion ensued about the meaning of luscious and if it should be used to describe the hamburgers. I got on dictionary.com. Mike pulled out his iPhone. In the end it was decided that, indeed the burgers were luscious.
