Win, Lose or Push

Upon walking out of his Sunday school classroom into the hallway filled with people Noah saw his dad and in his piercingly loud voice asked, "Can we play 21 with poker chips when we get home?" Now I enjoy a good game as much as the next person, but somehow this seemed a little inappropriate for church. The night before he had discovered the fun of blackjack with his dad, uncle and cousin and anything new for Noah can instantly become an obsession. I just thought it would be a fun way to practice math. 

With poker on the brain there were endless blackjack discussions that day (Usually ending with me saying, "I'm not talking about this anymore.") and of course, playing more blackjack with Rich and Joshua. Noah's obsession continued into his prayer at dinner that night. In an effort to make our meal prayers less routine and help us to think about what we're saying we have been disscussing additional things to pray about before we pray. This didn't happen tonight so Noah went out on his own. As Noah prayed his typical prayer he paused and added, "Please help me win at blackjack." Should I be concerned and does he know when to double down?
