My Family

Today was the Primary program at church. (where the kids get to sing and do little parts in front of the whole church). Molly and Carter and Brayden did such a great job. I love to hear the kids sing and could sit there all day and listen to them. My mom and dad came from Nashville to be here for the program and Judy and Papa were also there. I feel so lucky that my kids have 2 sets of grandparents who are so close and who they can have relationships with. I am also so happy that my mom and dad and Robbie's mom and dad are friends. I have had people look at me a little funny when I tell them that we all have Thanksgiving together or that we all go somewhere together. I guess it's not the norm! ;) After church we all came to our house for chili and pigs in a blanket and cornbread and banana pudding. I love this picture of my kids at the table with Judy and Papa and Nana and Papa! We had so much fun visiting with them and as always, were sad when they had to leave. Molly and Nana had some girl time in Molly's room playing with paper dolls and reading books and the boys were learning from Papa Ostermiller how to Indian Wrestle!
Molly's part from the program was "Heavenly Father gave us families" and she remembered it and did it all by herself! I can not believe that all 3 of my kids are old enough to be in the Primary Program. It was nice to just sit back with Robbie's arm around me (he got to sit with me since the kids were in his spot up front!) and enjoy my sweeties! I am thankful that they love church and they love to learn.

A few nights ago, Molly woke up in the night crying. It was about 3am. I laid down with her and told her I was there. She said "mommy, I need you to say a prayer so I won't have dreams about worms.". So, at 3am, I said a prayer that she wouldn't have dreams about worms. We both went to sleep after that. The next morning the very first thing she said when she woke up was "mommy, Heavenly Father listened to the prayer and I didn't have any more dreams about worms!". This little girl has so much faith. I want to be like her!
