Within the past two years, Rogers discovered that the word tender did not mean "hard." How an American girl grew up believing the word tender meant hard is beyond me, but this one did. Those who have heard this story, may remember that this caused a great deal of confusion for her when it came to others ordering their steak to be tender. She never knew why people would want hard steak to eat...
Today I learned another interesting tidbit regarding this misunderstanding. Apparently, because there are Christian worship songs that pose the worshipper asking for a tender heart, Rogers was also confused by this and speant her childhood asking God for a hard heart not understanding how that could be a good thing.
Rogers makes me laugh so much and not just because of moments like that. From her jokes to her misunderstandings or lack of knowledge surrounding geography and history to her laughter, I love that girl.
Today's funny line: "You could never go to prison!" -after I dropped the soap 3 times in the shower.
Merry Christmas. I may fit one more Blog in before D-25, but I'll be out of town so we'll see. Tomorrow Lisa and I are unwrapping presents with each other. I got her some good stuff so I can't wait for her to open them...(Note to Lisa: but I can wait until later tonight, so don't get any ideas!)
