Dudi was called to be in the bishopric a couple weeks ago which means I've gotta make it through Sacrament without him. My parents were in town last week so this week was my first solo with the kids.
We arrived 10 minutes early (which proves Dudi was usually holding us up), we found some seats with friends that had asked to sit with us to help me out (brave souls), and all was good. Nothin' to it.
Unfortunately about 20 minutes into church my friend got called into work and they had to leave. It gradually went downhill from there. Asher and Liv discovered the light switch was close by and took off for it.
The strobe effect is cool and all but...
So I took off after them, we all ended up in the hall, a little bit of threatening happened, came back into the chapel, and ended up strapping the children down cause they were still trying to get to the light switches all the while I'm praying for the meeting to end.
Okay, so we did make it through almost all of sacrament without incident. Not too bad for the first week, it could have been way worse.
Test 1= C+.
Angels aren't they?Oh, did I mention we had tithing settlement at 12:50? Not enough time to go home without having to turn back around, so we hung out at church.
Curse those light switches. I don't know why they make them so low. It was a pretty rough 45 minutes. I won't go into detail, but we did make it out alive. I'm not so sure about the others.
Test 2= D-
We made it home and napped and ate. Amazing how that changes everything!This evening Dudi and I were wrapping some gifts for some families. Micah asked why we were buying presents for other kids. We talked a little bit about service and helping out those in need.
A little while later Micah brought down a handfull of money from his bank. He said it was to help buy presents for some of the families that needed presents. What a sweet little guy.
Test 3=A+
They are actually little angels. They are just currently in training.
