Do I Smell Something? – Skunk Update
My husband walks into the post office and the lady asks him, “Did you get sprayed by a skunk?” (Whoa! Excuse me?? Did you just say what I think you said?) Our room still has the faint odor of skunk so our clothes are probably absorbing that. Aghhh! When we opened our laptop computer case yesterday the smell was strong.

A Thousand Rings?
Russell was reading about Solomon in our morning devotions a few weeks ago, telling the children how Solomon had riches, houses, lands, as well as 1000 wives and in the end said, “All is vanity.” Justus (6 yo) looked perplexed when he heard that Solomon had 1000 wives. “He did?
