Church laughs

I assumed one day my little darling would say or do something at church during children's church that would make me laugh, but also make me a little red faced. Well, I thought my day had already come and gone when she danced up and down the aisle with her friend, Christopher. That day I was laughing, but I was very red faced. It was funny.

Yesterday at Church, she gave the Church a big laugh. This is how it went:

Our Church is pretty formal and traditional. They have the Children's sermon every Sunday at the front of the Church. I walk Sallie Rose down to the front every Sunday after the dancing debacle. She sits with the kids and I sit on the front row with my eyes all over her. Our Church has about 350 people in attendance each Sunday. Pretty big Church. I honestly never think that she is paying attention to what the preacher is saying, but obviously after yesterday she is.

Preacher: Telling a story about a long road trip she has just come back from with the youth group. She is explaining that every hour the youth were asking how much further the trip was and she would say it is another 6 hours. She does this about 3 times and then says "the youth group kept asking, Are we there yet? I bet none of you kids go on long trips with your parents and ever ask them, Are we there yet?"

Everyone is quiet.

Sallie Rose: "Yes I have" as loud and proud as she could.

The Church erupted in laughter and she got really embarrassed and looked at me wondering if she was in trouble. I laughed of course and just grinned at her. What she said was obviously not that embarrassing, but she said it so loud and with such authority that it was super cute. And honestly, I really couldn't believe she was listening to what the preacher was saying.

My little darling, every day is something new and exciting with her. I wouldn't change her for the World.
