A funny story worth sharing...

Yesterday Maggie had a friend come over to play after pre-school. After playing for a little while upstairs they decided to come down for a snack and then to do a craft at the table. As they were starting their project, our visiting friend turns to Maggie and says to her "do you want to know what a hot lover is?" Directly behind them at the kitchen sink I was frozen in my task as I decided whether to interject or not to this pre-school conversation. Maggie was eager to find out just exactly what a "hot lover" was and so before I could say anything, or decide what to say, the little girl says to Maggie, "it's the stuff that comes out of a volcano." That's right hot lover was indeed hot lava. So, the little girl went on to sing, "hot lover, hot lover, hot lover" in a sing-songy voice. After a little inner chuckle to myself and a big sigh of relief I decided to chime in and correct her science lesson with my daughter. I told her the correct term was "hot lava" and then inwardly thanked the Lord that it was to be a science lesson and not a sex ed. one, hopefully that one won't come for a very very long time.
