Stop Drinking!

Isaac loves to read.  He enjoys reading books in bed, 10.24.10 Snuggiesreading scriptures at night with the family and pretty much any words he sees.  He has started reading billboards and signs everywhere we go.  He’ll read the name of a restaurant or other such place and ask me what it is or say something like “what does see red, save green mean.”  Our most interesting billboard conversation to date was on Sunday when he saw a sign that said “Stop Drinking.”  He didn’t understand why they would want people to stop drinking and thought it meant to stop drinking anything (including milk and water).  This sparked a rather lengthy conversation where I described all the ill affects of drinking alcohol and  tried to be as honest as I could and he asked a lot of good questions like “why would anyone want to drink that” and “do you know anyone who drinks alcohol.”

Zach: There’s a bus coming

Isaac: If it’s 279 don’t hit it. . . Actually, if it’s going out to pick up kids or coming back from the school full of kids don’t hit it either.
