So, Monday night our FHE was all about teamwork (especially since daddy is out of town - it works best when we act like a team). The lesson included a "Scripture Treasure Hunt" - the final prize being a trip to Sonic for a treat (I love a lemon-berry slush for $1.00!). It was so exciting! And the kids were so great - until we got home. They had showered earlier (yes, they went to Sonic in their jammies), so all they had to do was brush teeth, have prayers and get in bed. Not hard, right?!? Well, you'd think. But what was I to expect! I mean really! I got them all excited and I gave them sugar. I was the one that "riled" them up, and naturally, there are consequences!
Anyway, I ended up getting after Karlee to the point that her feelings got hurt. She was upset with me because I was "blaming" her. It was dramatic. So long story short -she got in bed, we chatted about making good choices and using appropriate behavior during prayers, I made sure she knew just how much I love her, we hugged, we kissed, and we said goodnight.
Later, I looked in on Karlee and this is what I saw.
She had gathered all of her stuffed animal friends and put them together in her sleeping bag for a good night's rest! In the morning, I found out that they were part of her team! :)
Oh, that sweet Miss Karlee Ann!
