Follow the Prophet

Barb hired some landscapers to work in the yard and Cade noticed a jug of tea on the deck left by one of them. He wanted a drink and I explained to him he wasn't allowed to because: a. the drink did not belong to him, and b. it would be breaking a commandment.

A few hours later we were off to the library and Cade stopped one of the men and said,

"Did you know the prophet said you shouldn't drink tea?"

"How come?" the man asked good naturedly.

"Because it's bad for our bodies."

"Okay then. Thank you sir," he answered.

Cade walked away feeling pretty proud about what he'd just done.
