The beauty of little minds.

Working on uploading some pictures so I can show you what we have been up to. 

But for now just a story, or 2, then off to bed for a good night sleep before work.  After a few healthy weeks, there are some snot & coughs showing their ugly faces around here again.  So I think I better get my sleep while I can!

We have been working with the kids on saying their prayers before bed.  Dancing to a CD with little kids Church songs.  Talking on a toddler level about loving God & Jesus.  Especially since we have been very absent at our Church lately.  Its just hard with 3 2 year olds.  They do not staff a nursery well.  We have tried taking the kids there with no success.  We end up staffing it ourselves.  It was a huge nightmare with 3 tots, so we just took a "leave of absence" until we were brave enough to try to sit through a service with the 3 of them.  But Saturday Livi told us she wanted to go to Church & sing Baby Jesus songs.  So..... we went.  Took all 3 tots into the service with us.  Sat way in the back.  Hayden got taken out 3 times for a time out of sorts.  He was naughty!  Had it just been Liv & Log, it would have been easy.  They all got a few dirty looks from their mama though, because Hayden's ornery-ness rubs off.  We left some Cheerios behind.  I probably sprouted a few grey hairs, BUT... we survived.  Can I get an "AMEN!"

I have mentioned the kiddos discovering the art of procrastination, especially before bed.  Well tonight I just couldn't get mad at Hayden for procrastinating.  Why?  We had just gotten done saying their prayers.  Their little hands folded.  Repeating things like "Thank you for za-za" {pizza}  "Love you God."  "Love you baby Jesus."  "Amen."  And there Hayden sits on the side of his bed.  Hands folded.  Saying "More pray!"  "No night-night."  "More pray peas!" {please}

Little minds are just beautiful.
