The "Family Ghost"

So, if you ever think that your children don't learn anything in Nursery.....you are wrong! Yesterday we asked Simon what he learned in Nursery that day and he proceeded to tell us that he learned about a "big, big, family ghost". We were confused of course until he started to tell us that "David was scared of the storm but the 'family ghost' made him feel better." and that "the 'family ghost' makes us happy!" Um, yes I may have gotten a little teary eyed! Clearly this "family ghost" is the Holy Ghost that they learned about! I love that Simon loves Nursery so much! He has the greatest Nursery leaders in the world and he looks forward to seeing them every week. In fact yesterday when I was combing his hair for church he asked me if I could comb it like Brother Roberts! So funny!!! We definatly needed to see this sweet side of him since lately he has been nothing but trouble! He has mastered the art of talking back to us (mom and dad, I apologize if I ever did this because now I see how mad it can make you!!). If we tell him to get dressed he says "I am! Now nock it off!" or now he'll tell me "Don't talk to me like that!" Simply obeying is not an option for him I guess! Arghhhh! I have heard that the terrible 3's is worse than the terrible 2's....and he is almost 3- so BRING IT ON! He may just end up being an only child at this rate! :) But on top of all of that he really does have his sweet moments and one little hug and kiss from him can erase all those frustrations!
