"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

- Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Aurora Leigh

Gypsy

When our kids are driving us crazy (what? that happens?) we often tell them that if they're not careful we're going to call the gypsies to come take them away.  It works as a kind of joke that calms everyone down.  This Sunday during Sacrament Meeting Spencer kept trying to take away Grant's Buzz Lightyear toy.  Then I overheard this:

Grant (with hand to ears in phone shape):  "Hello Gypsies?  Can you come get Spencer?  Thanks!"
