Awww...how sweet! You're back again! Hope you enjoy your visit with the Peapod Squad!
I always pray with the peapod squad on the way to school (and no, I do NOT close my eyes while driving). This morning as I uttered the “amen” at the end of the prayer, Split quickly spoke up.
Split: Oh no! You forgot something, Mommy!”
Me: What?
Split: The Library!
Me: What about the Library? Why did I need to pray about the Library? I know your class goes today. We asked God to protect you today, I’m sure He knows that includes your trip to the Library.
Split (growling, yes literally growling): Ugh. I’ll just tell Him myself. Dear God, please remember me to be quiet at the Library because it’s so important for me to be quiet there. Amen.
Me: Are we finished now?
Split: Yes, but that was SO close! My friends would be really mad if God let me talk too much at the Library and then we couldn’t go back there ever ever ever again and they might not learn how to read!
OK, really? The entire literary future of twenty 4-year-olds hinges on my memory at 8am?
That is way too much responsibility.
