Patience

At Church on Sunday, one of Faith's teachers came up and let me know that she'd said the prayer that day in class. Some of her prayers are pretty funny. She'll start randomly looking around the room and include things she sees in the prayer (we're still working on the whole close your eyes while you pray thing). I was quite interested to hear what he had to say about it.
What did she pray for? At least the part he remembered? That her parents would have more patience.

Suzy was playing the piano at Mutual on Wednesday night. Turns out someone naughty had gotten a hold of a Marker and written some not very nice things on the piano keys (one letter on each key). At first Suzy thought "That's cute, someone wrote the musical notes on the keys so they can find them". Then, once she really looked at it, it was more of an "Oh My Word!" kind of thing. Anyway, she then asked the young men's president to get one of the young men to find something to clean it off. Later, that young man came up to her and said, "Sorry you had to see those words written on the keys." Suzy was quite impressed with his consideration, and expressed her thanks.
Then he finished his thought, "Yeah, Brother Johnson was wondering if that was the reason you were having such trouble with the song."

Are kids great. And honest. Sometimes. When they probably shouldn't be.
