The only problem was how to negotiate the \u201cThou shalt not commit adultery\u201d\u00a0 sticky wicket with four through nine-year-olds.<\/p>\n<p>Happily, the kids took care of the issue themselves. When they kids arrived for the Bible story, and they tried to recall the ten big ones from memory, their spin on number seven was \u201ca married man shouldn\u2019t have another girlfriend and a married woman shouldn\u2019t have a boyfriend.\u201d So much for that worry and many thanks to Marsha, who front-loaded them with that kid-friendly interpretation during craft time.<\/p>\n<p>Their interpretation reminded me of a story my daughter passed along during our Sunday afternoon phone call. She was giggling about a something our new son had heard from a friend. This friend was watching TV with his daughter, and one of those irritating Viagra commercials aired, not for the first time in their TV watching experience. At the end of this particular commercial, his daughter asked, \u201cDoes reptile disfunction mean the man\u2019s lizard isn\u2019t working?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oh, to be a kid again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night, our small church group was in charge of Adventure Club.
