Concentrate Dear, concentrate...

I just wanted to share this little story with you all right now before I forget, because I just know I'll go to bed and sleep terribly trying to remember that I should blog this and then by the time morning comes--poof! It's gone.
Anyway, we just got done with family prayer a little bit ago and it was my turn. Because we have little children who don't necessarily sit still or be quiet, we usually have to hurry things up or at least we can't be too lengthy. But tonight I was really feeling my prayer and really thinking about what I was asking for and what I was thankful for. By the end of the prayer I was feeling pretty good with myself and expecting David to say something about what a nice prayer it was. Or even just a Wow that was long! But when I said Amen and looked up at him, David jumped right up with a twisted painful expression on his face. I asked him what was wrong and he said "Oh man! I thought I was going to poop my pants!" And hurried out of the room.
Well. So glad my spiritual moment was wasted on you. And that my friends is why women are more in tune than men. :)

4 awesomeness!...and attractiveness!:

lol I had a friend who gave a lengthy prayer and felt very spiritual when she opened her eyes expecting to see her husband crying as well.. there was his butt right in front of her face. he decided to moon her because she was taking so long.
