Sunday was the girls primary program. It revealed my girls true colors.
Emma, in true Emma fashion, tripped mid-program in her seat and got hurt. The world came to an end and she BAWLED-you know, the high pitched crying for her mommy on volume 10. I met her in the aisle and we went out to check the wounds. She was done. Under no circumstances was she planning on finishing out the program. Between mom and dad-nothing NOTHING could even remotely tempt her in the slightest to go up and do her part. She is my head-strong damsel in distress who needed to snuggle for the rest of the program. Yes, she ended up with crackers from the nursery leader who was sitting behind us.
Sophie, who can be a little bashful and "slow to warm up" to strangers, had the first part of the program. She had it memorized, but you could BARELY hear her. By the end, she was the loudest and most proud singer and her second part was executed loud and clear. She is completely and totally "into" her "performances." The entire ward is captivated by Sophie because, without question, she is the most entertaining girl in the primary.
I love these girls.. and am so proud to be their mom :)

Poor Emma! That is so embarrassing for a little girl to go through! Cute girls! I love Primary programs! :)
So funny how kids come with their personalities! They are such cute little girls.
So cute. Isn't it funny how different sisters can be? Mine are the same way. That is so sad about Emma. If I fell in front of everyone, I wouldn't get up either. DUH!
Okay, I am dying over the peach pie recipe. I'm FOR SURE making that this weekend. It sounds delicious. The funniest thing that happened to me this week is you talking about the "mushroom effect" over the top of the jeans. Can I just say, somehow that is happening to me...and Im not sure how this has happened. But why not make the problem worse....bring on the PEACH PIE!
Your girls are so funny. Hopefully Emma will forget this experience and be willing to participate in future programs, and Sophie will continue to gain confidence through repetition. I'm glad they gave it a shot!
AHHH, I love a good primary program. Ours is coming up, and we always just hold our breath and wait to see what Kennedy is going to do.
your girlys are so sweet I miss seeing you, but I will be ready come spring.
