After teaching the four-year olds in Primary yesterday, the following story was shared by her mother:
"Callie [cute, little daughter of one of our Kidstitute moms] fell asleep on the way home from church today, which is normal, but woke up on the way inside and kinda lost her mind. Screaming and kicking about how she wasn't going to go back to sleep, which she clearly needed to do. Just after the peak of her fit she started yelling something to me from her room. I walked in her room to find out what she was saying. She told me, between sobs, "If you want me to be happy then you have to give me my picture if Jesus!" Of course I told her that this was not the way to ask for something and that she needed to ask for her picture properly. Once she had her picture she went right to sleep. Later she woke up in a beautiful mood. Beautiful. She was cuddling up to me and said, 'Did you know that you can look at the picture of Jesus whenever you are sad and it will make you feel happy? My teacher told me that today.'"
A lesson for all of us!
