In preparation for Fathers' Day

Background info: Fletcher normally watches a tv show while I am getting ready in the mornings. Our electricity went out on Thursday and somehow messed up our cable box. I had no clue how to fix it or time to figure it out so I told Fletcher that dad would have to take a look after he got home from work. This was our conversation Friday morning.

Fletcher: Mom, can I watch a tv show? Is the cable fixed?
Mom: Yes, dad fixed it last night after you went to bed.

Fletcher: Mom, you are just a little bit smart but dad is really, really smart. He is good at fixing things.
Mom: That's right.

Fletcher: And mom?
Mom: Yes?

Fletcher: You are not strong at all, but dad is super duper strong.
Mom: Just watch your show.

"Her children arise and call her blessed " Proverbs 31:28

The Hebrew definition for the word "blessed" apparently does not include "smart" or "strong".
