A Memorable Visit

Sometimes a story is too good not to share....

Our wonderful friends from Taiwan are visiting the states for a month and we were fortunate enough to get to spend the afternoon/evening with them. Time flew by all too quickly and soon it was time for them to go. We wanted to pray together before the left, but as the time had gotten a little late, the kids were tired and less than inclined to play quietly while we focused on prayer. The answer- a little TV show and instructions to please be quiet and let us pray.

We were praying with a few interuptions, just minor and easily handled- success. We were almost finished when Ava comes into the room butt (buck?) naked...yes naked. Our friends were facing her and started to laugh as they saw her come in. That would be disruption enough, but apparently Ava feels completely comfortable around them. She knew she wasn't to talk, but needed to communicate her "need" to me. She turned around, bent over, and "daintily" spread her cheeks. No, I am not joking. She was showing me she needed help wiping her bum. Gross? yes. Hilarious? yes. Retold at her wedding reception? yes.

I am sure our friends will remember this visit for years to come....
