Lion Cloth

We have had lots of funny things happen when the words LION and LOIN get mixed up! Grant has been working on an Aztec report for school. He was telling me that he needed a costume for it. This is how the conversation went:
Grant: "Mom, I need a costume for my presentation. I am thinking about wearing a lion cloth or something.
Me: " A what?"
G: A lion cloth. That's what the warriors wore and I'm dressing up as an Aztec warrior. But don't worry, I'll wear cloths underneath it!
Me: (finally understanding what a lion cloth is, smiled and said, "Well, that's probably a good idea buddy."

Another time we were in Arizona visiting Dale and Heather's family. We went to their ward primary activity where they were dividing into groups and were asked to act out different scripture stories. Our kids were given the story of Daniel and the Lion's den. The teacher had made small signs that the children could wear around their necks with the name of the part that they were playing. Guess what Grant, Nathan, and Taylor's signs all said? LOIN! i wish I would have had my camera to capture Daniel and the LOIN'S den!
