I am not sure who taught the nursery lesson yesterday but I just have to say job well done. Ava could not stop talking about the Holy Ghost yesterday and even today. We had to sing the "Holy Ghost song" several times throughout the day. And then she says "mom if you're really quiet, then you listen and the Holy Ghost will tell you something." Then randomly throughout the day she would stop me and say "Shhhh mom I'm trying to hear the Holy Ghost. We have to turn the lights down." Last night I was sitting on the floor and she passed by me carrying a chair and accidentally hit me with it. I asked her to please be careful because she hit me and it hurt and she says "hold on mom, the Holy Ghost is telling me something. Oh okay. Mom the Holy Ghost says I shouldn't hit you. I'm sorry." She also told me the Holy Ghost told her she should be nice to her sister. (Maybe she'll listen to him because I tell her that everyday.) Then this morning we were in the garage and she kept making this sound with her mouth like "huh-ee huh-ee huh-ee" and then she'd laugh. When I looked over at her she said "Mom, when I make that noise, the Holy Ghost thinks its funny and laughs." She has been cracking me up and also making me smile at the same time with her sweet innocence. Her, the Holy Ghost, Heavenly Father and Jesus are buddies. She even told me tonight that she was so glad Heavenly Father put that special stool in her bathroom so kids could get up and see. And its not unusual for her to tell me when we're out and about "Mom I'm gonna tell Jesus to make the sun go away because I'm so hot." And with the faith of a child, it would probably happen.
I fell in love with this table the last time I was at World Market and I seriously can't get over it. The picture doesn't do it justice. It is beautiful! And it comes with a bench which gives me nostalgia for the table of my childhood. If only I could get it out of my dreams and into my house. One day...............
