Getting It Straight

This is an example of a typical lunch-time conversation at our house:

Lily (finishing the prayer):...And please bless Oscar that he won't eat during prayers.
Me (after the prayer is done): Oscar, were you eating during the prayer?
Oscar: No.
Lily: He's lying!
Henry: Screaming for food.
Oscar: No, I'm not! I put the food in my MOUTH, but I didn't move my TEETH.

Now that we have praying well in hand, perhaps it's time to move on to honesty.

This is classic. I loved this. Oscar is indeed a straight thinker.

i love the prayer! don't take this wrong, but oscar sounds like that phrase we've all heard "but I didn't inhale" haha... :)

I was actually going to write that in my post, but didn't want to offend people!
