when we were invited to attend a family friend's baptism a few Saturdays ago, we jumped at the chance to take her along.When wrestling to put on her pink Salt-Waters, I told Calli, "We are getting ready to go to the baptism." "Oh, okay.", she replied with a grin. Then we loaded up the car and made a quick stop at the public library before heading to the church for the event.
Inside the library, it became apparent that we hadn’t explained enough to her as she followed us around yelling, “I WANT TO SEE JESUS. I WANT TO SEE JESUS AND JOHN!” Now in the library, you want your kid to be quiet. And also not to come off as a weirdo. My fingers are crossed that she looked more "Isn't that cute?" rather than "I see dead people".
We did make it to the baptism and I think she is all straightened out now. Or is she? Maybe she knows something I don't.

they always know something we don't :)
Calli is so funny. Definitely not something Brooklyn would do.
this is hilarious! i can just see it.
just wait until you have a few more kids--then every trip to the public library can be one in which you wonder if people think your kids are weird, naughty, or oh-so-cute! with four or five kids we can't help but turn heads.
