That was a close one!

After Vacation Bible School last night I was driving home with my children.  As we were approaching an intersection, I began a conversation that went something like this…

Me: Hey guys look at that beautiful Yellow Lab!  (pointing to the right of the car where a woman was walking her dog)

Caitlyn: Oh Daddy! She’s so pretty!

Me:  Caitlyn that’s a boy doggy.

Caitlyn:  How do you know?

Me: (with sudden panic in my voice) Oh, I just know.

Caitlyn:  But HOW do you know?

Me:  (attempting to think on my feet) I just know what to look for.

Caitlyn:  What are you looking for?

Me:  (with sweat breaking out on my forehead) Ohh…

Caleb:  (My dear sweet boy interrupts the conversation to say)  Caitlyn, he’s looking for the bow!  If she were a girl she’d have a bow on her head.

That was it.  End of conversation.  Thank You, Lord for simple answers!
