Hand Sanitizer?

Our before dinner family ritual is to stand in a circle, hold hands, and pray.  Anytime you get five boys together in a circle, there is bound to be some silliness which requires a bit of correction.  There are normally reminders to be quiet, reminders that we are talking to a Holy God, reminders to not squeeze each other's hands.

Sunday night, Craig said something everyone was shocked at.

"Nick, get your finger out of your nose and hold your brother's hand."

(I don't think Luke, the lucky brother next to Nick's formerly busy hand, was very thankful for that bit of correction)

HAHAHAHAHAHA (gasp) HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh, dear. I am sure that either of my girls would have said EEEWWWWW! and required hand washing, even in the middle of prayers. I am so glad to know a mom of lots of boys, Courtney, I can't even tell you.

LOL! That was wonderfully fun... and understandably disgusting. Thanks for sharing.

I can so relate to that! I only have two boys with 4 sisters, yet it is still the boys needing that sort of correction. :)
