Funny Amelia Moment!

If you know us very well you know that Amelia's got quite the little personality. I can't say that we've trained her well, but at church she rarely shows this side of herself because she's more reserved around others...some days that is.
I guess she's getting familiar with her new Sunday School teachers Mr. Gene and Mrs. Leann because she sees Leann for both Sunday School and AWANA. Well, her teachers are VERY big on having the kids recite their memory verses in Sunday School which is great, but, once again, if you know Amelia...well, she's not going to do anything till she's ready. Our first Sunday back was November 1 and that day at lunch she said something about a Bible verse. I never got a straight answer out of her but the basics were that she wouldn't say the verse for Mrs. Leann in class but she said something like "Obey your parents" to me. I asked Leann about it and she confirmed what Amelia said and I guess she and her little friend Emily were the only two in class that day and they both had some little attitudes going on!
Amelia has brought that verse up a few times since that first week and the story's always the same, "nope, I didn't say it for Mrs. Leann." Well, this past Sunday afternoon she says, "Oh, 'Obey your parents' is my verse" out of the clear blue. I asked her if she was going to say it to Mrs. Leann that night at AWANA. She said yes...I'm skeptical as with most things this 3 year old claims...well, what do you know...I told Leann about it and she asked Amelia about the verse and then prompted her with "Children" and she finally said her November 1 Bible Verse to Leann!!! It was December 6 but better late than never I say!!
Thank goodness she's only in Puggles (at AWANA) this year so there's not a lot of pressure to memorize verses. We're up to two official verses since mid-August!
