Coffee

My friend Heather told me this funny story of something Jonah said a few years ago, when he was about 3 years old...
Her husband is a coffee drinker, through and through. She doesn't touch the stuff, but loves to drink tea. Just to be polite one blustery afternoon, she offered her husband a cup of tea. Jonah looked at her in surprise and said, "Mans don't drink tea! Mans drink coffee!"

I was reminded of this story this morning at our own breakfast table. In our family, I'm the coffee drinker...Mark can't stand it! Andrew said to me, in a somewhat quizzical tone, "Mom, did you know Gramps drinks coffee? And he's a boy."

Oh, the influence your own family has on your perspectives on life!
