This picture of my brother Matthew has been on the bulletin board at my parents house for more than a decade. It's been up there so long that someone took a push-pin and stuck it through Matt's eye. Regardless, I think this picture is hilarious and Matt has turned out to be a really funny guy! Last night for family home evening we went to my parents' home for dinner and dad asked Matt to tell us about his trip to Arizona for EFY camp. In true sixteen year-old boy fashion, Matt gave us an annoying minute by minute account of his travels and when dad had had enough, he asked Matt to just tell us his favorite class at EFY. Matt couldn't remember one. So, I asked about anything he learned. He couldn't think of anything he learned either. However, he said he read Songs of Solomon. Impressed, my dad asked him about it. Matt recited a verse for us. Come to find out, he had picked Songs of Solomon because that was where he found the word "breast" in the Topical Guide. Nothing like a sixteen year-old brother to make the family laugh! No one asked any more questions after that. . .
