Amen!
Boone saw a teachers' aide from his school last Sunday at church. Boone isn't thrilled with church, because I keep him in big peoples' church with me since he doesn't know a lot of English yet. Pryor likes church. He doesn't know a lot of English yet either, but I send him to Sunday School class with Stafan and Shepard. Anyway, this is the conversation Boone and I had when he saw the teachers' aide:
Boone: "Why she here?"
Me: "Why are you here?"
Boone: "You make me."
Me: "Don't you like church?"
Boone: "No."
He does, however, like being the only kid that gets to go with Mike and me to Panera Bread every Sunday morning. That is our Sunday morning routine. We drop all the kids off for Sunday School and then we had to Panera for an hour. We then go back to Church where the older kids join us for church while the younger kids attend childrens' church. For now, Boone tags along with us. And he loves his souffle.
Ran into 4 of my oldest sister's girls at church. From L to R, Lacy, Avery, Erin and Lain. They are all very sweet girls (even if Erin can be a little ornery).
After church, it is off to Steak n' Shake for lunch. As you can see I don't do a whole lot of cooking on Sunday.
I am a firm believer in Proverbs 22:6 (as well as the rest of the Bible): "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." And society has gotten so bad, I cannot even imagine not taking my kids to church every Sunday.
