I apologize in advance

It's possible I've used that title before.  I'm not saying sorry for the poor photo quality in this post, although the pictures are cruddy.  All too soon, you'll learn what I'm apologizing for.

Obligatory photo #1:



Obligatory photo #2:


Our subject today is uncontrollable, silent laughter during Bible study.  Not home Bible study, but in public, in a room with thirty other people.  If you haven't experienced it, I can say it's oddly...cleansing.

Last month, Sharpshooter passed a note to his brother during Bible study.  Happy Meal read the note and started giggling, so I confiscated it.

Dear Stinky,

As the government we fell the need to consult you about three things, your butt, your breath and your feet in Wyoming, Oregon, Idaho, California, Arizona and Nevada people (everyone) have been complaining about smells.  We traced the source of the odor and IT SEEMS to be you.  We are taking dramatic steps to help.  Do these orders or we will send someone down to shoot you.
1. WASH YOUR FEET
2. WASH YOUR BUTT
3. BRUSH YOUR TEETH
Also, we have noticed that if a person walking down the street five miles away if they see you they are temporarily blinded.  Get plastic surgery.

Signed,
Government

I leaned forward, hiding my face, trying to look like I was meditating especially hard on Paul's epistle to Philemon.  Several tears splashed to the floor.  In a wonderful moment of poetic justice, Sharpshooter became worried.

"Are you all right, Mom?"

I couldn't answer.

I can't decide if I wish I went to the same meeting as you or if I'm real relieved that I don't....because my boy and his dad have a SERIOUS laughing during prayer meeting issue : ) That note was pretty awesome. Could you ask him which of the three smelled the worst?
