Coffee? Tea? Serenity?

As homeschoolers, one of the first lessons that we learned, and are constantly reminded of, is the fact that we just never know where the next important lesson might come from.  Sometimes it is in books, the news, the internet, driving down the road, or visiting with family and friends.

As we visited with my parents on Wednesday evening, the topic of recession was mentioned several times because of the current news programs doing the same.  Scott chimed in with, "What is a depression, anyway?  Is that when everyone is depressed?"  We all answered in laughter with, "OH, yes!  People are depressed, alright!"  That laughter then turned into a great lesson in history and how the Great Depression effected those living through it.

Whether we be in a recession, or a depression, or just a short term journey of difficult moments, we can all count on Scott to bring us to laughter.  Thank you Scott, for the reminder to always find time to laugh no matter what the troubles may be.
