Today was happy. I was happy. Peyson was happy. It was cold...rain storms all day long. So we snuggled and watched movies. Like we do every day. But today was better. Peyson helped make macaroni and cheese. He checked the water for bubbles. He poured in the noodles. And he ate two helpings. Mmmm. Then it was nap time. We always sing songs before sleep.
peyson: i nee a sing a song mom
me: ok...what one?
peyson: mm...the temple
me: ok...i love to see the temple, i'm going there some day
peyson: i go the temple too mom
me: (still singing...huge smile...proud moment)
then a prayer
then...
peyson: one more song mom
me: ok...what one?
peyson: um...the scriptures
me: ok...i love to read the holy scriptures, and every time i do, i feel the spirit start to grow within my heart, a testimony that they're true...
peyson: i want scriptures too
me: you do have scriptures. the book of mormon, its blue. then theirs the bible...its big and fat.
peyson: its not fat mom
me: oh. ok. they tell stories...like ammon. (he has an ammon toy, and ammon was cuddling with him. so he picked him up) i told him the story of ammon, and how he had to protect the kings sheep. the bad guys came and tried to steel the sheep, so ammon cut their arms off...
peyson: (i can only imagine what he was thinking...) he gave me this look like...mom!...why did he cut their arms off???
It was so sweet. I drifted to sleep and woke up to a sweet, peaceful, sleeping boy. The rest of the day was just as perfect. We went for a family bike ride, all 3 of us. Then we stopped at the park. When it was time to go I said, "5 more minutes." Then I told him one more slide. He said, "no mom, 2 more minutes." :) Cute boy. Sweet moments. Perfect day.
