Ok..... So I know it's been WAY too long since I blogged, but this one was way to funny not to share. I will catch up on back news soon...... "promise" :)
So the bible story for tonight is about Jesus changing water into wine. At the end of the bible story, it suggests things you can think and pray about. For this particular story, it mentions to think of some things that you think are impossible to do, and pray about them knowing that with God all things are possible.
Ok, that in and of itself isn't funny..... but the ensuing conversation certainly was!
We went from thinking of things that are impossible to the question.... "Momma, are you ever going to have a husband?.....
hmmmmm...... I'm not sure what Mr. Freud would have to say about that progression.
But wait.... it gets better.
So I once again explain that Yes, I hope to someday have a wonderful husband but that I haven't found the right man yet. My prince charming hasn't showed up on his white horse yet to sweep me off my feet.
(not sure when the poor sap would have time to "sweep" me anywhere between school, horseback lessons, work, schlepping all over town, dr appts, errands... you get the picture)
From there, the conversation went sideways. Maybe God is still making him Ava says. To which I proceed to make a hammer and chisel motion with my hands.
Abby chimes in, yep, maybe he's making him with REALLY long hair like me! Maybe he's REALLY Tall and Skinny!
Ava then dissolves into giggles and says maybe he can fit under the door! and Abby adds, Yeah! and then cause he's so skinny his underpants fall off!
Ok, now not reading too much into this and REMEMBERING that for 8 and 4 year olds, underpants and the idea that they might fall off is hilarious.... I'm holding my breath for what comes next. They come up with many funny places a super skinny very tall husband could fit into. They discuss his various virtues and atributes. Then it gets quiet for a moment.... never a good thing in conversations like this.... and Ava asks... "So when are you going to Kiss?"
I giggled with them and then said... .When the minister says "You may now kiss the bride" and then he kisses me.
(hopefully instilling that ever important waiting idea right?!)
They about fell off their beds at this point - rolling with laughter.
Then they both simultaneously gasped..... "EWWWWWW!!!!"
Suffice it to say, Their prayers were short and sweet tonight, And I thank God always for such sweet and funny girls.
