On Saturday, we had such great weather that we decided to wash the van as a family. When we were finished the boys played in their pool till supper time. While they were playing in the pool, someone came to mow the lawn for the house across the street (it is vacant and was being auctioned on Sunday, so they wanted the lawn to look nice.). The girl who came over to do this was wearing a very skimpy bikini top and very very short shorts.
The boys continued to play for the first half hour she was there mowing...she was in their back yard where we couldn't see her. Then she came to the front of the house about the time the boys were getting out of the pool. Brent came over and was sitting in his chair drying off and was watching this lady mow.
He looked at me and (very quietly) asked, "Mom, why is she outside without very many clothes on?"
I explained to him about the word modesty and what it means to be modest and how dressing modestly makes people more comfortable and dressing immodestly makes then uncomfortable.
He says, "She shouldn't be out of her house with only a bra on...she needs to wear a shirt too! Maybe she forgot to get dressed?"
Out of the mouths of babes!
