No More TV For My Sweet Little Boy...

Every night I tell my children stories from the Scriptures. Tonight I told them the story of the widow's mite from the New Testament. When I finished, my 4-year-old son had some questions. "Why didn't other people help her, mom?" and "Why didn't she just go out and get a job?" I answered his questions and he got quiet, obvioulsy not satisfied. I could tell that he really wanted to figure out a way for this poor widow to have what she needed. Suddenly his face lit up. " I KNOW!!! She should just get SMC!!!" "What is SMC?" I said. "You know, mom, that place where you can be your own boss and make your own money!"
