Going To Church

You know it is going to be a great day when the first thing your child does at church is make a paper airplane out of the church bulletin! We have been having such a time with Camden not wanting to get dressed to go to church. He complains and complains and whines a lot! He told me one Sunday that the rear end of his foot was hurting because of the shoes I had made him wear. (I think he meant to say his heel! Ha). 


He tells me every Sunday that he looks ugly and I make him wear clothes that don't match. Oh my, I guess it is time for him to have his own style. I am quite sure that his style will not be the cute young boy clothes that I have in mind! Besides that, ever since warm weather has gotten here he has been trying to wear socks with sandals to church. I think he does this just to irk me. What could he possibly know about fashion for goodness sake?


This morning Camden was wearing black dress shoes and white socks and he had on plaid shorts and a yellow polo shirt. I very carefully pointed out that his brown flip flops would match better with what he had on. After going back to his room to change shoes he came out and said, "I do concur, this really does match!" Did he really just say that to me? I asked him if he knew what he said. He replied, "I don't really know what concur means. I just heard it on TV." I had a very good laugh at that and then I shook my head for a long time.
