The other day as I was reading up for my philosophy of music class, I heard Natebug scrunching up some paper. He had gotten into one of the phone books again. Since we live in SoCal, and thus have a bakers dozen mostly-overlapping-but-not-quite-interchangeable phone books always on hand, I wasn't too worried. Nevertheless, the nutritional content of the yellow pages is rather low, and babies don't really need that much fiber anyway, so I intervened once I saw that he had actually dislodged a page.
That's when I discovered that it wasn't a phone book at all, but that Mr. Meeper was engaged in an in-depth Bible Study, pulling apart chapters 7 and 8 of Revelation.
I feel very proud for having instilled in him a love of Scripture at such a young age. I'm a little worried though. What is the proper interperetation of Rev. 22:19?

Hermeneutically speaking, I suppose it would have been better had he chosen a different book of Scripture, since probably John only intende his warning to apply to that specific book.

Wasn't it Isaiah that ate the scroll though, not Nathan?
They were sweet as honey, but after I did eat them, my stomach turned sour.
At least he escaped the torment of "gnashing teeth."
