This afternoon, I had an opportunity to sit at the piano for a little while. Joey was playing on the computer and Bug was playing on the floor. For once, my piano time (rare that I even get any) didn't turn into a trio.
I was playing out of my Maranatha Praise music, enjoying singing those "oldies" that are hardly sung anymore...you know, the songs I grew up on. So there I was, playing a very reverent song about standing on holy ground, when I hear Bug laughing on the floor.
Bug was playing with a toy we got out of a Happy Meal...a Shrek figure that says three phrases. It's not my favorite toy, nor my favorite character, as one of the "phrases" is actually a burp. What's worse, is that Shrek doesn't even say 'excuse me' afterwards. But Baby Nick is playing with Shrek, and every time Shrek 'burps', Baby Nick laughs. Not just a chuckle, but a full-fledged laugh.
It was so funny....not that I want him to think that I think that him thinking burping is funny, is funny (try to translate that one!), but to listen to him laughing every time; it cracked me up! And then to listen to it in juxtaposition of my worshiping. Something about it struck me as funny. This is a time when God shows his sense of humor.
