When Ignorance Is Bliss and Perception Is Everything

Last night, Husband related a conversation had between he and 12-year-old Fifi in the car yesterday. They were driving past a video store when Fifi spied an extra-large window display for a movie: Hannibal Rising.

"Daddy, are you going to see Hannibal Rising?"

*incredulous tone* "No! Why would we see that?"

"Well, it's historical, isn't it?"

Of course, Fifi was thinking about this Hannibal while the movie was promoting a fictional evil.

Wow! What a blessing to have a 12 year old who thinks of this movie in terms of HISTORY and not modern culture. That is evidence of great learning she is experiencing!

I saw your comment on another blog and I think I am the one you were referring to about having some family in AZ. Hopefully I will meet them and be Jesus to them. :)

Great blog! Looking forward to learning more about you and your family! (Sorry this comment is so long!)
