follow me



Two weeks go we went to church like normal. We went to the gym for "casual service," grabbed a bag with crayons and coloring pages, sat in our seats, and danced to the music. Every Sunday we have communion. Usually, one of us carries Eden while we stand in line to get the bread. When we are close to the front, she reminds us that she does not want the juice. We remind her to hold her hands together so she does not drop the bread. She does, and she eats the bread. It is actually quite cute.

Perhaps the cutest thing we saw, though, happened on this particular Sunday. When it was our turn to get in line, Eden turned to Ashley and said, "Follow me." She then got up, got in line, and started walking forward. She did the whole thing by herself - standing in line, walking forward while slowly taking baby steps as the line inched up, stretching out her hands, taking the bread, and going back to our seats. She didn't turn around to look at us once. WOW! And, yes, Ashley did cry.
