We arrived in Hobbs today and celebrated Carolyn and my birthdays with her family. Hers is the 24th, and mine is January 5. Before the sun set, I took my twin five year-old nephews and Sam “hunting” in the prairie located out back.
During supper, we were talking about “church,” and Carolyn’s folks related that their church, Taylor Memorial Baptist, had just undergone an extensive renovation. As part of the renovation, their hymnals were removed. Sam perked up from his table, and in mid-bite said, “What’s a hymnal?”
Suffice it to say that he has little to no remembrance of his time in a traditional church. Times are a’changin.’

I think it’s horrible that Sam doesn’t know what a hymnal is. What a heathen rearing for my grandson!
