a laugh and a look.

there's a korean kid in my class. his parents and grandparents speak no english in their house. which is fine. i think that's cool actually. bilingualness...very great. i support that.

but it makes communicating with him a challenge.

today on the playground he started chewing on things he should not be chewing on. mulch, to be specific. (ewwwww...) so i went over to him and told him to spit it out. no way was i fishing around for it. but he doesn't know what "spit it out" means.

so i had to demonstrate.

there's today's laugh. i LAUGHED!

and i woke up with this tune in my head:

My hope is built on nothing less
than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
but wholly lean on Jesus' name.

When Darkness veils his lovely face,
I rest on his unchanging grace.
In every high and stormy gale,
my anchor holds within the veil.

His oath, his covenant, his blood
supports me in the whelming flood.
When all around my soul gives way,
he then is all my hope and stay.

When he shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in him be found!
Dressed in his righteousness alone,
faultless to stand before the throne!
