The things we do for our children

Today was such a beautiful day that I decided I would take James for a walk. Aho was working, so we were home by ourselves (that seems to be a growing trend!!) I decided we would walk to the temple. I had put some sunscreen on James when we left, but it was very overcast, so I didn't worry too much, so all he had on was a onesie. We got to the temple and the sun came out just blaring. I would run in between the trees and take my sweet time when we would walk past a tree. His face and arms were pretty well covered by the visor on the stroller, but his poor legs were soaking up the sun. So, I decided to sit on a bench for a minute and enjoy the sights. I started wondering what I was going to do on my way home to cover his poor little legs. I had nothing with me. I started looking at what I was wearing...I did have a tank top on...and then I remembered my slip. It is a half slip, easy to take off. I looked around and I was surrounded by missionaries. They go to the temple every Sunday and mosy around. They were all around me, but I decided that I didn't care, I needed to cover those chubby little legs. So, I put my hand up my skirt and started pulling. As I was doing that, two missionaries walked up to me and wanted to practice their testimonies on me. So, here I am with my slip to my ankles and missionaries bearing their testimony to me in German. Very funny. Anyway, I got it out and wrapped it around his legs and headed home. It was a very nice day, and I quite enjoyed being outside surrounded by the beautiful nature.
