Bishop's office


This little girl had a ROUGH HOUR after church today, here is why....

Back in January, our family was in the Bishop's office taking part in Austin being set apart as the deacon's quorum president.  Well, during the blessing (keep in mind we are in a very small room with a few other families and the whole Bishopric) Sophie passed GAS, twice on my lap!   After the blessing I could barely open my eyes, I wanted to DIE!!  One of Austin's leaders, Jimmy Pickett looked at me and said, "was that you, Tracey?"  He of course made matters even worse for me!  A few other people said a few comments and that was the end of that.

So today after church, Scott and I were in the Bishop's office and our kids were in the hallway waiting for us.  As we were leaving and saying our goodbyes, the Bishop was in the doorway and Sophie walks up to him and says (as serious as can be and with a straight face), " Bishop, do you remember when I  F A R T E D in your office?"  Bishop totally laughing says, " I try to forget about those things, Sophie!" Meanwhile, I am walking as fast as I can down the hall trying to disappear into thin air.  Everybody who was waiting to see the Bishop, all my kids, the clerk, his assistant, you name it they were there.... were laughing hysterically out loud.  Well the result of that, was this picture up above.  She came running down the hall to me and just clung to me and buried her head into my neck and cried and cried and cried!  All the way home.  She laid in her bed for 30 minutes crying of humiliation.  I don't think she realized what she was saying until it was to late, she has the same personality as Cooper, she says exactly what comes to her mind and today when she walked into the Bishop's office, that is what was on her 5 year old mind!
Luckily.... we consider our Bishop a great friend!

This story will make a funny memory one day. She's crying now, but she'll laugh at it one day.
Hang in there Sophie!

Claire's worried about Sophie because she's sitting here by me and saw her sad picture. Poor girl! At least she realized enough to be embarrassed...

Love the potty shot. And camping looks so fun. I want us to get away and do that again too but Dave's a tough sell.
