Abigail Meets Ariel



Abigail attended a friend's birthday party where there was a special visitor. She was enthralled!

Never a Dull Moment

At the beginning of sharing time today Abigail comes to sit with me. She then asks me to take her to the bathroom. In an attempt to leave surreptitiously, I choose to walk between my chair and the wall. In the process I knock a huge painting off the wall. I managed to catch it and put it back on, but not before I was viewed by all in the room. So much for not drawing attention.

After coming back from the restroom, all of the primary children are sitting on the floor around Sister Johnson doing sharing time. Abigail walks in among them and announces: "Sorry, I had to go potty."

Later in the lesson, Abigail walks up to Sister Johnson, stands by her for a minute, leans down and kisses her hand, then sits back down.

I received many smiles from leaders today.

Never a dull moment.

Sharing Time

Today in primary Abigail was a bit tired. She sat with her sunbeam class for a bit, than came and sat with me. During music time we sang "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes." Abigail was standing by me and she attempted to sing, but they sang it really fast. She then walked up to the music director at the front of the primary room and said,

Abigail: Shallen, I have another song.

Shallen: okay...

Agigail: (to the tune of "head, shoulders, knees and toes) Hat, white beard, belt and boots, belt and boots, belt and boots, hat, white beard, belt and boots, a big round belly and a little cherry nose.

She was complete with actions. The entire primary was quiet as they watched her and listened to her sing her solo. Everyone laughed after she was done, and she just smiled and sat in her seat.

At times she frighteningly reminds me of myself.
