On the same trip
as the "Butt Noodles" incident, Kelsy and Holden had enjoyed one
other's company just about as much as humanly possible. They had
teased each other, played every game they knew how to play, played
school, played Jesus and you name it…they'd done it!
You can only
have too much of a good thing, however, and they were becoming
a little weary of each other. Holden would pick on Kelsy and Kelsy
would pick right back! Kelsy finally had had enough of this and
she refused to talk to him for a little while.
Holden begged
her forgiveness, but as most females are prone to do, she refused
to listen to his pleas. She gave him the dreaded silent treatment!
All was silent
for a few wonderful blessed moments. Then out of the silence came
this still small voice singing very softly, "if you 're a Christian,
you must forgive, if you're a Christian, you must forgive, over
and over, and over.
Kelsy's conscience
finally got the best of her and she had to give in and forgive
him..
Unknowingly,
he gave all the family members ammunition to use against each
other. Now it's our family motto when something goes awry and
we don't all get along...
(Of course that
NEVER happens!)
Out of the mouths
of babes!
