Bedtime Scriptures

I sighed in relief when Elder Bednar spoke about he and his wife wondering if their kids were gleaning anything when they read the scriptures. Tonight found me laughing all through Carlos' reading of only two verses. Why you ask?

Well, there was Mason on my lap soothing his thumb that has a wart on it. He was preoccupied with the Compound W the entire time - blowing on his thumb and playing with the bandage that would soon wrap his finger. Then there was Cristian doing "the worm", a lovely throw-back to the 80's. He looked like a beached whale struggling for water. Cora had on the "carpet sliders". She was gliding all over the carpet in her usual grace and flare. The splits often appeared in each little number. Perry was just a spaz mimicking everyone but Mason.

Carlos briefly spoke about "wickedness never was happiness" - in between 3 phone calls of course. I just laughed. We ended with our prayer.

We tried right?
