Sydney and Piper sang "A Child's Prayer" in sacrament today. They have been practicing all month, we had help from the past primary chorister and the current primary pianist. I think they are going to miss practicing with them. I was so proud of them and so grateful for all the help. It was beautiful and they both did perfect. I got so caught up I didn't even record it. I couldn't believe how brave these girls are.
A Child's Prayer
(Piper)
Heavenly Father, are you really there?
And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?
Some say that Heaven is far away
But I feel it close around me as I pray
(Sydney and Piper)
Heavenly Father, I remember now
Something that Jesus told disciples long ago
"Suffer the children to come to me"
Father, in prayer I'm coming now to thee
(Sydney)
Pray, he is there
Speak, he is listening
You are his child
His love now surrounds you
He hears your prayer
He loves the children
Of such is the kingdom, the kingdom of Heaven

Lu was pulling all her usual sacrament meeting antics so she'd wind up in the foyer. Shea and I are fully in the trading Sunday's routine with our miss terrible two year old.
Dean is loving sunbeams he loves going to class and he loves showing off his work afterwards. He is such a sweetheart and is getting better and better in Sacrament. He still has his weeks where he can't contol his antsy-ness. But we have to take him out less and less.
We are in the stage where Sundays are exhausting but I always leave church grateful for these people of ours. We always are getting compliments from teachers about our little people. They may be crazy at home but I guess there is hope.
