Out of the Mouth of Babes

I got to spend some time with they boys yesterday since they were off for MLK Day. On TV there was a cartoon talking about MLK and the boys had discussed MLK in their classes at school the week before.

As the show on TV talked about MLK, Robert announced to me that "they had shot MLK with a shotgun."
"Yes," I replied "they did."

"Why did they do that," he asked.

"Because they didn't like what he was saying," I said.

Then Jack chimed in. "They should have just talked to him if they didn't like what he was saying."

"Yeah," Robert said, "they should have just shook his hand."

"I agree," I said.

And Jesus said, a little child will lead them. This makes more and more sense to me everyday.
