we went to church without chet this sunday.
matt's parents accidentally left their sunday clothes in calgary. so they didn't go to church with us. and when they offered to keep chet with them, we gladly accepted!
i had forgotten how peaceful church can be - how much easier it is without a kid.
we were there on time.
we stayed all 3 hours.
we actually listened to the teachers.
we got to hold hands.
we didn't have to hold the hymn book awkwardly high so it was out of chet's reach.
there was no pacing the hallways, picking snacks up off the floor, outbursts, crying, diaper changes, diaper bags, mixing bottles in sunday school..
weird!
i honestly do love taking chet to church. i like the way he listens when hymns are being sung and how handsome he looks dressed in his sunday best. and i am excited to teach him to have a love for, and a testimony of, the gospel.
but.. i would be lying if i said it wasn't reeeally nice to ditch him for one week!
we had a fun weekend with matt's parents.
chet loves his grandpa.
and his grandma.
