Just venting

...I met a little girl the other day at a birthday party J was at, she was 8.  She was wise beyond her years, probably knew a bunch of stuff I didn't or would never know.  We were talking about homeschooling and I asked her what church she went to.  A natural question I thought as most kids around this area that are homeschooled are involved in church.  She answered me very quickly and said "I'm not religious".  Eight! I felt so sad for her, clearly she was very gifted and able to make some decisions on her own but I wondered if she had ever even been told about JESUS with a chance to make up her own mind.

...That same party happened to be on Super Bowl Sunday and yes during the game.  The next morning at school I heard a couple of parents joking about not going to the party.  "Who would plan a party at that time, who would ever go"  Well we did and we had fun.  I am a bigger football fan then most but I am an even bigger fan of 2 little boys who wanted to go to a friends birthday party.
