Love to read the Scriptures

I had such an awesome mommy moment the other day and I knew that if I didn't write it down I would forget it. Kennedy and Elijah were playing upstairs while I was working on some dishes. All of a sudden it got very quiet and so I went upstairs to check it out. Kennedy and Elijah were laying on my bed with my scriptures open. They were snuggled close together and Kennedy was "reading" the bible to Elijah. I was totally melting as she was "reading about how Jesus loves us all, and he wants us to keep his commandments, and on and on. She was very intent- and Elijah was just looking at her and paying close attention to everything she was saying. I stood there being so proud- and thinking--"Gee...maybe I'm not so bad of a parent after all"---THEN- Kennedy looks at Elijah and says "Now Elijah- you have to pay VERY close attention to everything I am saying. You have to learn this stuff- because someday you are going to be a missionary and you are going to be teaching this stuff all day long.............. AND HOW BORING IS THAT?!?" I couldn't hold it- and I busted up laughing and gave myself away. It was CLASSIC! My mommy moment where I was so proud was totally deflated to plain pure enjoyment of my quirky, awesome little kiddos. It was great.
