Sydney's Growing UP

Yesterday we had the Missionaries from our Church over for dinner and afterwards we were having a friend watch the kids so Larry and I could go on a date. Of course I was extremely busy running around, cooking dinner, cleaning the house, getting all gussied up for the date...blah, blah, blah. So while I was in the bathroom taming the afro, Sydney came in and asked...
S:"Mom, do you think that Sister Richins could just stay at her house and the Missionaries could babysit us?"
Me:"Well, I don't think that's a good idea because the Missionaries are VERY busy. They have lots of people to talk to and share the gospel with."
S:"Well then, could they at least give me a kiss on the cheek when the leave instead of shaking my hand?"
Me: (just picture a look of surprise with my mouth open and eyes bulging)"Mmmm...no missionaries don't kiss."
And yes that is the best answer I could come up with! Holy Cow, she already wants a kiss from the Elders. She's not even 5 yet!! Oh she's going to give us a run for our $$.

Hahahaha! This is now, imagine when she meets some missionaries who are actually handsome. Oooh, snap! Well...it's true, isn't it?

When I joined the Church, I was 21. Imagine how hard it was for me not to kiss them. I kissed my first boy when I was 2 yrs. old and I have the picture to prove it!

Maybe I should post it. Heh.
