Sacrament Meeting Bread

Yes...almost exactly 6 months have passed since I have posted on this blog. Birthdays, a baptism, Thanksgiving in AZ, Christmas, ringing in 2010, an engagement, birth of a niece, are just a few events that have happened in the last 6 months. I am not going to mourn the loss of those posts, but I will continue right here and now!

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about our little 2 year old. He is growing up so fast and so much fun. But in the same breath I can also say he has his not-so-fun-but-still-gotta-love-him-2-yr.-old-moments. In fact he's supposed to be in bed right now, but just came up to me and whispered about 2 inches from my face, "I need to tell you sumping. What times it?" Then he gave me a big slobbery kiss. Even though he should not be getting out of bed, it brought a smile to my face.

Some of those still-gotta-love-him moments have been at church lately. Our ward has THE best tasting sacrament bread. Thanks to Bro. Miller! He makes his homemade bread each week for us all to enjoy. You know it's good when Matthew tries to take a hand full each week. I try to whisper softly in his ear before the bread comes, "now remember to only take ONE piece". Never works. His fist is full and a big smile is on his face. To add to this... lately he thinks he can take more than one cup of water. Two weeks ago he started reaching for his second cup...when I tried to stop him and take it away he got upset and threw it at the row in front of us. Water drops flying in the air. Sorry Stevens family.

So now he knows he can raise panic when he throws something at church. Last week in frustration he threw a lacing card and it landed by Bro. Plowman's shoe. Not so bad, but when he was trying to throw a bigger-ticket item I did start to panic, but luckily distracted him with something else. I can't wait to see what happens this Sunday!
