COOOOOOL! http://paolopunzalan.com/2009/06/whoa-cooooool/ http://paolopunzalan.com/2009/06/whoa-cooooool/#comments Thu, 25 Jun 2009 23:20:41 +0000 Paolo Punzalan http://paolopunzalan.com/?p=679 FOOL10logoI read a proverb to my kids over breakfast. I often do.

I have breakfast with them every morning before going to school for a couple reasons…

  • To connect with them
  • To set their day off on the right direction – with God’s word.

.

This morning, I read Proverbs 26:11 , “As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.”

Pretty graphic word picture.  I asked my kids, Nathan, Janina and Ryan if they knew what it means for a dog to return to its vomit.

Janina says, “it’s when a dog goes back to his ’suka’ and eats it!”

To this, Ryan answers, “Whoa!!!! Cooooooool!”

I think he missed the point.
