CUTE!

Last night in church, Mac decided to stay in worship with us rather than going to nursery after the children's sermon. During the last hymn, he stood on the pew between Brad and me, holding my pocket Bible (his pretend hymnal, scaled to 3 year old size). As the congregation heartily sang "What a Friend We Have in Jesus", I noticed that Mac was heartily singing...something else. Every time there was a pause in the hymn, his voice carried on, to a different tune. The more closely I listened, I realized he was loudly singing the theme song to "Bob the Builder" with all his might (and quite seriously!).

After the service was over, I asked him--"Mac, were you singing 'Bob the Builder' in church?"

"Yup."

"Why were you singing Bob the Builder?"

"Because I didn't know the words to the song you were singing...stop laughing at me mom!"

{I had to turn away--because I was laughing so hard, because it was so cute, because he was perfectly serious and because he thought it was perfectly normal to sing "Bob the Builder" as a hymn. And actually it was--I know the Lord heard him singing his praises! Oh my, that child is precious.}
