When the baby wakes up at 5:30, and church is at 12:00, Sunday morning is very leisurely indeed! (Lucky for all of us, she took a good 2 hour nap later in the morning.) I'm glad the girls slept as well as they did last night.
We had a good time at church. Ernie loved Sunbeams, and was so proud to show us, in MCE, "I love you Mommy" and "I love you Daddy." (MCE is Manually Coded English- it uses mostly American Sign Language, or ASL, hand signs but keeps English grammar.)
Wonder Daddy and I became an object lesson in Sunday- as a young couple "obviously" in love, the teacher called us up to front and handed us each a squishy foam ball (like a clown nose is made of.) Each ball was our "life" before we met. Our hands bumped together to symbolize our union, and that we were now holding each others' lives. The teacher took WD's ball, and put it in my hand and told me to open my hand: four balls popped out! He handed them to WD, then 8 balls popped out of his hand. He handed those 8 balls to me, and the wad of foam was so large I had to use two hands. When I opened my hands, 8 foam balls and a 2-foot-long foam sausage chain burst out onto the floor.
Apparently, he's a gifted teacher and a pretty good magician.
The girls both took naps after church, and Nana made a fabulous dinner (weight-loss group...I may not be able to show my face for a few weeks.) Mimi especially enjoyed the steamed peas.
As long as you tell is what you'ree eating, feel free to hide in shame as long as you like! ;-)
