Sacrament Meeting 2

Sunday, sacrament meeting was without incident. No yelling. No escape attempts. During the blessing of the bread, she angelically folded her arms. Emily was very very prepared with snacks and toys. Diana had a scheduled break about half way through. During the break, she walked around the back of the room and up and down the isle a little while eating cheerios. She then returned to her seat and we did everything we knew, without overly distracting others, to keep her content. (Right on, Camille)

We haven't figured it all out. She grows faster than we learn. But, Diana was Heavenly Father's daughter long before she was ours and He seems to be teaching her with the same patient kindness that He has been teaching us.

That is awesome! We do our best to get the kiddos to fold their arms and be especially quiet during the sacrament prayers but sometimes it doesn't work that way. Aaron usually says, "That's yummy water!" really loudly after he drinks the sacrament! :) Whatta ya do??

Ha ha ha! That's funny. Even with her one good word, "No." Diana says some funny things. Part of me can't wait till she has mastered lots of words. Another part of me is not ready for the embarrassment.

My friend, Sariah, just blogged about her son who yelled to a black man, "Hey boy! Are you on Reading Rainbow? I watch your show!!" (sariahandjakeenglish.blogspot.com)

That is hilarious! I would've died too! :) I'm glad people write down the things their kids say. The kids are going to be super embarassed - like we are when they say it - when they're older!

Thanks, Warren. It's amazing everything you do for Diana on Sundays.
