Jesus Christ


Last night Travis and I were playing a game. Lane was sitting by us, occasionally climbing on us while we played. It is a game of questions. So it was Trav's turn and his question was who is the most loving person you know. He started to give it a lot of thought. I was of course offended that he didn't just blurt out that he thought I was the most loving person. Then he said "Jesus Christ" to which Lane folded his arms and added amen. He thought we were praying. Then Trav and I just started laughing. It was so sweet. They pay attention more than we think they do.
