Oh if you could have just seen Reese today. First in Primary while the kids were singing "The Wise Man Built his house upon a Rock" she started to do the actions with the kids. It was such a distraction that the kids would no longer pay attention to the song leader, but it was so cute. Then after dinner while Dan and Michelle were playing with her she tooted. It was very loud and after she finished she clapped for herself. Again not really appropriate but very funny. Last of all while we were getting ready to say family prayers she stood by the couch, folded her arms, bowed her head and started to jabber. It was like she was saying her own prayers. When she was finished she looked up at all of us and smiled. Claire and Lance where laughing so hard that they couldn't stop during the real prayer. It just amazes me still how much children pick up just by observing us. She knows that when we say "time for prayers" that she should fold her arms. She loves to move her arms to the music. After I kiss her she will sometimes mimic the sounds of thank you, because I say that after every time she gives me kisses. It is a testament that we should be teaching, showing, and exposing our children to many good things from the start, because they DO absorb everything.
