big drink

(true story this past week when returning home from VBS)

julia (5yr): dad, can I have a drink of water when we get home?

dad: maybe a little drink but not a big one because it's almost bed time and we don't want you to have an accident.

julia: but dad, at night I pray to Jesus and he wakes me up to go to the bathroom in the morning.



dad: that's great jules, but what happens if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night?

julia: daaaaad, then my pee wakes me up. so see, I can have a big drink.

(as we arrive home)
dad: you're gonna have to ask your mother.

julia: mom, can I have a big drink of water? I'm really thirsty

mom: just a little one because it's almost bed time.

julia: but mom, at night I pray to Jesus and he wakes me up to go to the bathroom in the morning.

dad: yeah and tell her what happens if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night?

julia: mom, then my pee wakes me up. so see, I can have a big drink.

mom: did your pee wake you up last night?!
