Lately my son has been coming up with the most random topics of discussion. Apparently at school today, one of his friends was discussing a unibrow. Since he could not remember what it was called, tonight he asked me, “What is it called when a person’s eyebrows are joined in the middle?” As a father, I was proud to have the answer to this life-changing question. I’m not sure where I picked up this useless information, but I know I’ve met quite a few people sporting the unibrow – males and females.
At dinner tonight, we had another random discussion about how he would escape if a fire was blocking all the doors in the house. Initially my wife told him, “Just jump out any window. I would rather you break your legs than not to have you at all.” By the way, our house is two stories and I’m not even sure if I would jump from the second floor, but then again, I’ve never been face to face with a raging fire either. In response to Leah’s answer to his question, he brought up the fact that he doesn’t know how to open the windows. Good point. Personally, I was stumped, but Leah quickly spoke up saying, “I would do anything I could to save you. Don’t worry.” This answer seemed to satisfy him. I guess it’s a good thing to have someone nearby who is willing to give up their life in order to save yours.
Know anyone like that?
“For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:21).
