Mystery Dad's

In the spirit of Father's Day the primary did a fun activity called "Mystery Dad's". 3 dads came to primary with bags on their heads all wrapped up in sheets. The kids did a scripture activity and then got to ask yes/no questions to the dad's.
Jim was chosen as one of the contestants and it was a riot. For some reason they figured him out first, probably due to the question : "Do you have three daughters named Anna, Kirsten and Lilly?" Jim answered with "technically no" thinking Lilly's real name is Lillian and trying to keep some element of mystery in the game.
Kirsten kept running back and forth to me asking if it was dad. I told her I wasn't sure and that she would have to ask more questions. She raised her hand each round in hopes to ask that one question that would settle the matter. Towards the end she was finally picked and with a huge grin on her face she asked the question of all questions: "Do you got two women's?" It was silent at first and then you could hear the laughter build in the room as people began to get the question and the answer: "technically yes."
I was dying-TWO WOMEN"S?!!! how hilarious is that? I love the way that kid thinks and that to her the mystery was solved-it was indeed her dad! :)
Happy Father's Day Jim. Thanks for being such an incredible father and for doing such a wonderful job of taking care of our girls. Your patience continues to amaze me - you are perfect for a family of all girls! You are the best!

My kids and Tony told me this story over lunch today. You are an amazing family and we're so glad that Jim has got "two women's". And three lovely daughters to boot.
