The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing But the Truth

We had a great time talking about the TRUTH last Sunday at MYF. We played "Two Truths and A Lie", during which we learned Mercer has never had braces (have you seen her perfectly straight teeth?!?!) and laughed over Jess's close encounter with a squirrel (yikes!).

Then, we played a popular card game ("Baloney Sandwich" or "I Think You're Lying") that requires players to stretch the truth and display their best poker faces.

Then, we discussed why people lie, if it's ever ok to lie, and how to tell the truth even when it's hard.

Speaking of telling the truth - I've had a hard time this week. YOU try planning a surprise birthday party for a friend without telling a fib or two! Which raises the question: Is it ok for me to lie for the sake of the surprise? Discuss amongst yourselves!
