We feel very blessed that our children do not give us much grief about going to church; in fact, they really don't rebel at all except for what to wear, but that's minor to attendance! Not only do they willingly attend, but they are involved in various ways. They all acolyte, but Caroline LOVES to acolyte. She wants to be there every week early in case someone doesn't show up (which is usually the case).
Our church has three services a weekend--a high liturgy on Saturday evening, 8 am and 10 am Sunday morning. Due to William's soccer game today, the late night U of L game last night, and the spring forward time, we decided to attend Saturday evening service. Caroline, true to form, raced in to see if they "needed her help" and in fact they did. After getting home last evening, we looked at the schedule and realized that William was on the schedule to acolyte this morning. Caroline readily volunteered to stand in.
I dropped Caroline for the 10 am service. When I picked her up after Sunday school, she got in the car, looked at me with a very serious expression and said, "That was the exact same service as last night." Good to know she listens!
On the flip side, she's not very observant--last night Fr. Charles left after the sermon I believe due to not feeling well. When I asked Caroline today if he was able to stay through the whole service her response was, "He left early last night?"
