After paying at the check-out of the local commissary (grocery store for military), I waited for the bagger to follow us out to the car with the groceries. She was distracted putting the last bags on the cart, and didn't immediately follow us.
My dear 4 year old son, Isaiah noticed her reluctance as well and quickly snapped his fingers over his head, and said, "Let's GO!!"
Could I have blushed any redder? How embarrassing!
To make matters (internally) worse, I realized that he learned the snapping fingers and "Lets go, Lets go, Lets go!!" from yours truly. There goes the "Kathryn is so patient" myth that you all believed, right?
I guess someone in this house needs to set a better example for her kids. Ouch! What a way to learn.

Remember the Judy Roger's song with the line in it that says "nothing can be hid from God?" Isaiah probably can sing all the words to it already, and we need to be reminded too, that all our thoughts, words and actions are seen by Him. Thanks for the reminder, Kathryn. I know I have had a red face on more than one occasion. Love you!
Isn't fun how we see ourselves in our children! For some reason they pick up on the things we don't want them to learn a little quicker than the good things we wish they would learn :)
haha next he's gonna be doing "mmmmhhhmm, don't make me snap my fingers in o-formation" :)
