Tonight during family scripture reading time, as we were reading in the Book of Mormon, 2 Nephi 30:18 Rebecca read the following:
"Wherefore, all things which have been revealed unto the children of men shall at that day be revealed; and Santa shall have power over the hearts of the children of men no more..." at which point Warren and I cracked up laughing. She asked why we were laughing and he told her the word was actually "Satan." We finished reading but suddenly Rebecca was in tears. She told Warren that it had hurt her feelings that we laughed at her. We explained that it was cute and proceeded to tell her stories where we had said the wrong thing and laughed at ourselves. Warren even admitted to his most recent over the pulpit error (which the kids and I had missed since we weren't at church yesterday). He went to the pulpit to greet everyone and wish everyone a happy mother's day with these words: "Happy Valentines Day!" It was an absolute honest mistake but the congregation roared with laughter.
The evening ended with Rebecca saying her own good night prayer, thanking Heavenly Father for laughter and jokes while she continued to crack up herself. It was one of those times where it was best just to let it go. I'm sure Heavenly Father was smiling.
