Body Parts

I love talking to my children. They have some of the funniest things to say. I just wanted to share with you our dinner conversation from tonight. We were talking about what everyone had learned in church. Joshua was sharing that he had learned about his ears and being thankful to hear. Aaron though he would be funny and test Joshua, the following conversation ensued:

Aaron: What do you use to listen with? Your nose?

Josh: No...

Aaron: Your mouth?

Josh: No..your ears

Aaron: Oh, your ears. What do you see with? Your lips?

Josh: No, you eyes?

Aaron: What do you smell with?

Josh: Your nose

Aaron: What do you touch with?

Josh: Your hands

Seth: No, your fingers. What do you taste with?

Marissa: Your mouth

Seth: Nope

Aaron: Your tongue

Seth: Yep, because you have tastebuds on your tongue. Do you know why they are called tastebuds?

Aaron: No, why?

Seth: Because the little bumps on your tongue taste stuff and they are your buddies!

Aaron: Nice. What do you use to walk?

Seth: Your feet

Josh: Your legs

Marissa: Everything from the waist down

Aaron: You're all right.

Josh: Oh, I got one...what do you use to poop? (insert awkward pause) Your butt!

Marissa: Nice...

Needless to say, we changed the dinner conversation after that one.

Good News!

Good news everyone! Aaron has a job! Yeah!!!!!!
He accepted a one year paid internship with Pasadena Health Center. Yes, Pasadena, over an hour and half away. We are thinking that we probably won't move and that Aaron will just commute. If you have time, ask him how he plans to commute to Pasadena, it's quite a plan. :) So, I have to share the story on how he found this job. One day, Aaron decided he would just look and see what kind of jobs were posted on Craigslist. He saw this particular job, but it said that they weren't accepting phone calls about the job, only emails and in person. Well, Aaron likes to make contact when applying for a position, so he decided to go to Pasadena to drop off his resume. As he was pulling out of the health center's parking lot, he got a phone call from the CEO. He asked if University of Houston-Clear Lake had sent Aaron to apply for the position (which they had not). The CEO then told him that ironically no one had responded to the Craigslist posting, so they had just worked out using the position as an internship through UHCL, which just happens to be where Aaron is getting his Masters degree. So going through the school, he gets a job and credit for school! I would definitely say that the Lord had his hand in this one! :)
