Tristan's big moment at church



Two weeks ago it was Children's Sabbath at our church, meaning the kids do a large portion of the services and participate in a lot of ways. Well Tristan was among four kids his age chosen to light candles in honor of children from around the world. He was so nervous and so serious. I told him afterwards that he could have smiled, he just looked at me and said "No Mom, I had to concentrate."
And of course this post wouldn't be complete without a funny story from Jack. Last night was the fall festival at the boy's school. Jack won a beanie baby leopard. On the way home he was deciding what to name it. "I think his name should be Sprinkles." He had just named another one of his animals Sprinkles as well. It seems to be popular these days. "And then I think Lin Lin should be his second name, and Octopus will be his third name. His fourth name will be Merlin and Belly (no not Bailey like our dog) will be his last name." So the leopards name is Sprinkles Lin Lin Octopus Merlin Belly. Poor leopard, the other leopards are all gonna tease him. I was dying in the front seat because he was so serious. And Savannah, well she has an ear infection-----again. We have a costume party to attend this evening and have no idea what we are going as, will have to update that later.
