Pray Rosa Pray

We had a wonderful weekend. One of our friends from A&M came over with his family and spend Saturday with us. It was great to visit and catch up again. We had a baby shower for another girl at church. Sunday was another busy Sunday. All in all we enjoyed each other and had a great time.
I have a new story for you and only wish I had pictures to go with it but when you read it you will understand why I do not.
Sunday morning after class Colby (Rosa's father and our minister) and Andy brought our children up from Bible class. Braxton was attached to Colby and Rosa to Andy like normal. Braxton had decided that he needed to sit with Rosa (one pew in front of us). Unlike normal we gave in and they were thrilled. Things were going well they were reading their books and smiling. Singing and following the normal process of Sunday morning. When it came time for communion, the men were up front, and the man leading communion was reading a scripture things were going great. Then he said those words "let us pray" - everyone assumed the position with their heads bowed - except for Rosa and Braxton. So Braxton thought he would help the process along. He quickly grabbed the back of Rosa's head and pushed it down all the while saying in a very loud voice "Pray Rosa Pray". I looked up at the same time as Lisa (Rosa's mom). It was all we could do to hold in our laughter. Then he started again "Pray Rosa Pray" We told him that he needed to pray also and he bowed his head and on we went.
I am thankful that my son knows how to pray - yet fearful for how he likes to be the BOSS. I think he gets it from his DAD!!!
So the next time a prayer is said and Braxton is around - make sure you bow your head or you might just be called out!!!

That is awesome. I love it. Pray Rosa Pray. You need to teach your son to close his eyes and concentrate. Don't you have think he should be able to have that concept yet?

Too neat!
