A Little Lesson

Life is a continual teaching oppurtunity and learning experience for me, with a 4 year old and a 2 year old.
The other morning after we had family prayers, we had to have a little talk with our kids about sitting still and being reverent.
The conversation went like this:
Dad: You guys we need to be reverent and sit still when we are saying prayers, because we are talking to Heavenly Father.
Raegan: I want to ta-w-k to Jesus!
Brig: We are pretending that Heavenly Father is in our family room, huh?
Mom: Ya kinda, it's like he is here with us so we need to be reverent. He lives up in heaven and is listening to our prayers.
Brig: We just pretend that he is in our house?
I love kids, they are so innocent. I learn so much from my kids everyday!

Trish, I love your blog. You have the cutest kids; Mark and I have always loved the name Brigham and Brig for short (don't hate me if I use it one day:)). It's so good to see you are doing well. Let's be blogger friends! Talk to you soon.

That is so cute. I bet you just laugh your head off everyday at the funny things they say. I am sure that will be fun when we get to that point.
