Fasting has become a hot topic around the house. Gil and I have both been doing partial fasts this month and it has received the attention of the kids. Today Lena shared that she wanted to "do a fast". I quizzed her, being unsure that she knew what fasting was all about.
"Fasting is when you stop doing something and spend more time talking to Jesus." Okay, Lena, you pass the test on fasting.
Not wanting to be outdone, Olivia said she too would be fasting. "I'm going to fast for one day."
"What will you be fasting from, Olivia?"
"Ummm... ummmm... from my clothes."
We all cracked up and in a few seconds she caught up with what she had said and laughed with us. What a riot!
lol! now I have to explain to my co-workers why I'm cracking up!
