Sweet Tooth

When most people go through their winter coats they get excited because they find they've left a $10 bill in the pocket. Not me. I get excited because I find a bag full of candy. Mmm, Jelly Bellies.

It was scary

"I saw the Holy Ghost, and it was scary."
-Fin, a 4-year-old in our Primary Class during sharing time

You know how sometimes when you wake up you are still kind of dreaming and things make sense that later don't make any sense. Well, the other night I woke up in just such a state. I had a nightmare about watching a bear attack on TV and in the dream I didn't want to watch it because it was so disturbing to see this person get tortured by a huge bear.

It was the middle of the night when I woke up, and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Then I started wondering if there were a bear in the house. I started planning out what I would do if it walked into the room. Would it be best to hide under the bed? Should we jump out of the window? If we went in the bathroom and closed the door, would he be smart enough to know he could break it down or would he walk away?

I finally got up and turned on the TV to try to get my mind off the subject. Guess what was on? A show about bears in Yellowstone.
