Breaking the Rules

Breaking The Rules My little girl who just started attending school. Asked me daddy, do we have to follow each and every rule? And I answered, yes my love, we must obey. But daddy, she said, I have to pray. Daddy you taught me, give thanks before we eat. And to thank the Lord is such a treat. The teacher scolded me and made me cry. She said you can’t do that here but wouldn’t answer why. The other kids laughed and pointed at me. Daddy I wanted to hide to run and flee. I don’t want to go back not ever again. I don’t like it there daddy is that a sin? Well I picked her up and said I’ll tell you what. Don’t you ever stop praising the Lord you give it all you’ve got. She squeezed my neck so very hard. And said I love you daddy, you and the Lord. If I must home school then that’s what I’ll do. But my little girl is going to follow You.
