Waste of Time

I put on a movie for the older two kids to watch after church. Devin was asleep on my lap.
Garrett says, "Mom, can I play the D.S. or the computer instead."
I say "No."
Garrett replies "But watching a movie is a waste of time!"
Like playing the D.S. or computer ISN'T a waste of time.


Garrett than says, "The D.S. is playing and the movie is just watching"
I said, "You can choose to go play something else." And he did. We read books together and now he is outside riding his scooter.

I guess he really does think watching a movie is a waste of time.
