God, give me strength


As my children were watching the Charlie Brown Christmas cartoon Linus got up on that stage and made his sweet little speech:


"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were so afraid. And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men'. That's the true meaning of Christmas Charlie Brown"


I made them both pay attention when I knew it was coming. After, as I was getting ready to ask what Linus meant, Avery leans to the side and.....


FARTS!!! (loud!) then asks even louder "WHO IS CRUSTY LORD?!?!"
Well, at least it didn't happen during Sunday morning Bible school!
