He Stayed


A moment of silence please...

Yesterday Dane stayed the entire time in Sacrament Meeting. This may seem a small feat for some when, in fact, it is a large step for mankind (at least at our house).

Before church I armed myself with new books, a few toys, a pack of M&M's, and a pleading prayer. We called good friends and asked them to sit with us on a row so that Dane didn't try and escape the entire hour like last week. Warren sat the boys all in a row on the couch and spoke profoundly about reverance, contention, and helping mom. I just hate leaving those three alone when I have to take baby Down out into the hall.
And it worked! Cross your fingers and pray for more!!

Congratulations. I have decided that we are on a 3 good 1 bomb rotaion. They do good for about 3 weeks in a row then we'll have an awful one then I get new books and were on for 3 more! Good Luck.

YAY! Wow this is a HUGE milestone. I wish my 12 and 14 year olds could make it through an entire Sacrament without having to go out in the hall for something. Way to go baby Dane!
