One night I was explaining to her that we needed to clean it.. it was black from the day's adventures.. and she whined and cried Whitney style, of course and then I thought of a little idea and we had the following conversation:
Mom: Whit, why don't we pray to Heavenly Father and Jesus and they will help your toe feel better?
Whit (while whimpering): Ok, call them and tell them to come over.
Mom: Well, They live in heaven. They can't come down, but if we pray to them they can send the Holy Ghost to help you feel better.
Whit (now full fledge crying): I don't want a ghost to come to my house.
By this point I was losing her. She was SO scared a "ghost" was coming that the screaming and tears just kept on coming.
Goes to show how great of a mom I am. My almost sunbeam doesn't even know what the Holy Ghost is. We have a lot of work to do!

HAHAHAHA!! I am laughing so hard right now! You are the best mom ever and you should tell this story over and over and over again!
How cute is that! You are a fantastic mom, but what about those nursery teachers? :)
Oliver is a very dramatic boy when it comes to any sort of injury. It's extremely annoying. So annoying that I pretty much ignored him when he cut his foot yesterday, until I saw the blood all over the kitchen!
That is a great story and you are a great mom!
You just made my night! So Funny!
Oh Mindi this reminds of an FHE lesson we had in California with Marisa a few months ago. I was teaching her about the Plan of Salvation and long story short it ended with M in major tears because she didn't want grandpa (wayne) to die. I was like...great...this did not go as planned...
