We were sitting at the breakfast table this morning listening to Phil Collins as we ate. His voice is well known to my kids, made popular to them by the movie Tarzan. The song True Colors, came on and they said "what is this?" To their question I replied, "It's Phil Collins, but a different song he sings." Dave threw in, "and it's also sung by Cindi Lauper." Not having ever heard
this name, Jonathan pipes up, "Silly Whopper?!!!"
Silly Whopper . . . funny how the message sometimes gets misconstrued bases on our previous knowledge and exerience. We could ponder that one for awhile . . .
I love our kids - they continue to bring us joy and always give us a fresh perspective on life ;-)

I love interacting with people from other generations/backgrounds because the language I use--that includes nicknames, abbriviations, and some geek terms--is so foreign to them. It's something I take for granted. I especially love when God is described using mathematical/engineering terms.
