Head shapes

Sunday morning, we were on the way to church and to pick up Aimee’s brother who cam to visit for a week.  Our boys had been ecstatic with anticipation of all the fun times with their Uncle Skyler.  However it had been almost two years since they would have seen him so I asked Japheth Jr. if he still knew what Skyler looked like.      “Yes Papa, I know what he looks like!” “What does he look like?” (I, who never misses a chance to learn better how to describe one’s looks :-) “Oh Papa, he has a round head just like Jeremiah’s!” Oh how the laughter rolled. Japheth was only trying to find words to describe his uncle so he compared him to someone he knew.  The thought came to me later, what do people compare me to when they try to describe my physical features, or more importantly, my spiritual features!  Truly, “by their fruits ye shall know them.”
