Peyton Gives a Talk

Peyton got asked to give a talk in Primary (Sunday school for kids). We practiced a few times at home and I knew he was going to do just great. If there is one thing that doesn't seem to scare that kid it is getting up in front of people. I actually think he thrives on it. Well just as we suspected he got up, and talked right into the mic (with me whispering in his ear of course) like he had done this a hundred times before, no problem. We finish up and he said the last part by himself....... "In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen". Ahhhhh we were finished, I walked back to sit down and noticed that Peyton wasn't following me. Just then he steps back up to the mic and says "aaaaaaa, I didn't hear any Amens???" I think my face turned bright red. Everyone just started laughing.......it was SUCH a Peyton moment.


OK just one more while I am thinking of Peyton stories in Primary. Before Christmas the kids were learning about the birth of Jesus and they acted out the nativity. Peyton was chosen to be a shepherd (the leader according to him:) We got to the part where they were talking about Mary riding to Bethlehem and the gal teaching said "Who knows what Mary rode all of the way to Bethlehem". My darling son who I swear knows this story because we read it all of the time yells out (before she can call on anyone with their hands up). "A GOAT". Trying not to smile the teacher said "no not a goat", "was it a SHEEP?" Peyton asks with his little nose turned up. By this point all of the leaders just couldn't hold it in any more and everyone was busting up. A DONKEY son it was a donkey..........(that last part was just in my head:)

Seriously......got to LOVE that kid!
