Somehow, the little girls had never embraced the wonders of Larry Boy and the Rumor Weed until this past week or so.  While it has always been on the movie shelf, for whatever reason it remained undiscovered.

Let’s just say it went over big.  Very big!  In her tremendous enthusiasm, Katriel decided since Mama hadn’t watched it with them, she would share the story with me.  So she did.  In careful detail she retold the story to me, complete with sound effects and dance moves.  She fed me the lines so that I could reenact her favorite parts of the story.  I enjoyed hearing her narration to the core of my being.  Now, I probably first enjoyed Larry Boy and the Rumor Weed in 2003.  Imagine her joy and surprise when I was able to join her in a rousing chorus of the Rumor Weed’s song! 

That was a few days ago.  Since then, she has carried, “Weedy” pretty much everywhere and today I asked if I could take a picture.  For reasons known only to her, she felt these faces best such a shot. 

(She is such a Butler-kid!!!!!)

I did catch this smiles a few moments later. 

Matthew 13:40
Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the close of the age.
