Brotherly Love and Other Church Stories

Here they are giving each other piggy back rides...


I have some boy stories that I have been meaning to share.

Last weekend in church I was driven back into the cry room with Madeline. But, I had made sure we had seats in front of the window so I could see the boys while I was in the room.

The boys didn't realize that I was watching them, which meant I was privy to all those things I usually cannot see. Josh was pretty well behaved, he waved to me entirely too much, but that's fine. But, Andrew spent the entire mass fidgeting and antagonizing his brother. At one point I see him reach around Ainsley, grab Joshua by the neck and LICK him on the neck!!! He had the most evil grin on his face! I was like, "Hey! You! Get your tongue off your brother!" What are the people sitting behind them thinking?!

But, they still love each other. While taking a bath together last week I overheard Josh say, "Drew, let's be brothers forever." Andrew said, "Okay." I just wanted to squeeze them!

But my favorite church story so far is the one where they discuss Communion. The priest is holding up the host and one of them exclaims, "Look! A giant cookie! Do we get one?"

So which is worse? Neck licking or doctoring the announcements section of the church bulletin that make fun of your sibling?

I think we still have them beat. The neck licking was a single event while our "advertising" skills were honed over a number of years of consistent misbehavior. But, the children are still young, give them time...
