In an effort to ensure Rich spends enough time with the cuties, despite his crazy schedule, he either reads to them before they go to bed or plays a game with them; a few days ago they selected Candyland, but last night's game of choice was Hide and Seek. When it was Rich's turn to hide, he selected the perfect spot and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited for Braden and Brooke to find him. After a few minutes passed, he decided to give them a few hints as to where he was hiding, so he started throwing various items into the hallway to get their attention. Much to his dismay, they didn't notice; they in fact were walking around the kitchen discussing the many possibilities of where he could be hiding. So, he, undeterred, gathered some more shoes, toys, and various other items and continued to throw things into the hallway; after I pointed out what was happening, they quickly located their father. What were Brooke's first words when she saw her daddy? You would think they would be, "We found you!" or "Gotcha!", but no, they were, "Daddy were you throwing stuff?" (it needs to be said that this question was posed with as much attitude as she could muster) Rich of course said yes, to which Brooke responded in a teacher tone, "Jesus doesn't like you to throw things." Rich, intrigued, asked, "Why not?" Brooke (complete with the duh expression on her face) replies,
So there you have it folks, the gospel according to Brooke, don't throw things; Jesus doesn't like it, because its naughty. Oh, that sweet child of mine, what will she come up with next?!
