Please don't call on Mom for prayer.


Tonight Ian asked me to say family prayer. I was really feeling a lot of love for my little family and must have really been getting into it when Niev interrupted. "That's too much. MOMMY, that is just too much. Stop. I said,'STOOOOOP!'" I could barely close my prayer I was laughing so hard.

And so the tradition begins: Moms always say the longest prayers!

hahahahahahahaha oh my goodness that is so funny! I do that to Scott sometimes... although not so obviously... ill just squeeze his hand really hard til he is done... Long prayers are great but sometimes I just have way too much on my mind and things to do to be able to sit still through a 20 minute prayer! haha Your girls are absolutely beautiful Lora! I miss you guys so much! MOVE BACK TO UTAH! PLEASE!!!

okay I'm laughing SOOOOOOOO hard right now. Oh man, did you know you became Mom because I didn't. This same thing happened to us the other day too--both Jeremy and Boston were like moaning during my prayer and not kneeling very reverently. LOL Oh man that's just too funny. I would have never guessed that I would be like Mom in this way because honestly I remember thinking, "Not mom, I'm tired, Not mom" LOL We're like her more and more! It's a good thing. :D

The day you realize you are turning into your mother is a mixed combination of feelings. Then you will always have those that are reminding you of your change and begging you to stop - "Please stop. That's too much." Not that being like Bonnie is bad. It's just something you never think will happen but is inevitable.

p.s. Craig pointed out that we are not on your stalking list. I think you hurt his feelings. :)
