Giants

Last night, I wasn't feeling well and so while Kevin did the dishes he put on a video for the girls to watch.  A friend had lent it to us, it was mice observing Bible stories.  In the video, they mentioned a man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, and he was a giant, but not Goliath.  So, at lunch today they mentioned it again and we looked it up!

2 Samuel 21:20And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was descended from the giants. 21And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, struck him down.

Also at lunch, we were eating carrots Kj noticed the giant on the carrot bag.  I told her that was the Jolly Green Giant.  "I thought it was just the Green Giant."  Well, some people say that he is the Jolly Green Giant.  "What does jolly mean?"  He smiled a lot and was happy.  He says, 'Hahaha, Green Giant.'  (Or is it hohoho?)

Jolly: in good spirits, cheerful, festive, joyous, happy
