Tomorrow it's supposed to snow in Maryland, so we decided to skip school for one day and drive to Ohio early. I am really glad we did. The drive went smoothly, the children were good, we didn't stop a lot. We did run into traffic twice but over all I'd say it was a lovely drive.
Just as we were nearing Nana's house, like literally less than 10 minutes away we had an incident. Ethan hit Grace, or some variation on that theme. Not sure exactly what. There was some crying and some it was her faulting. Then Hannah, ever the peacemaker, said Grace, don't worry now you are entitiled to hit him back. It's an eye for an eye, that's in the Bible.
That's true but then Christ came and gave us a new law. Children??
Turn the other cheek, forgive and be kind.
I like the other one better.
I like the code of Hammurabi better "if a man takes your sheep you must give him all your sweaters"
then there was laughing.
