Going against everything I believe, I have recently resorted to bribery to get my husband to do things- (I'm going to be a great mother, haha)
For easter I had given him some peanut butter eggs, which he loves, but had threatened to hide them when he kept eating them for breakfast. On Sunday I was pestering him to get up and bear his testimony, something neither of us had done in a long time. I told him that if he would bear his testimony I would let him have them.
After readily agreeing he turns to me and makes me promise that if he goes up I wont. I thought that was an odd request and laughed inside as I thought, "Succor-you should have dared me back while you had the chance" ... I should have seen it coming.
My stand up comedian of a husband recognized the material he had available, waltzed up there and told the entire congragation of my attempts at bribery. But he doesn't stop there. He continues by telling them of how I asked the bishop for a calling and got us both roped into teaching 8 six year old boys in the primary and something about falling down on the couch to recoup after church was over. He had the whole congragation in tears and bishop was rolling on the ground. He was so proud of himself. He did manage to squeeze in about 30 seconds of actual testimony and doctrine (we'll take what we can get)
Then all day after church I would hear him laughing in the other room and when I asked what was so funny he'd say "Me. They loved me today" Hahaha, is that not so Zane!! He thinks he is the funniest man alive. The problem is, I do too and I probably feed it way too much!
The really funny part of this whole story is that I never hid the eggs in the first place. Zane hid the eggs from himself, hahahaha! When I threatened to hide them he knew I meant it so he hid them first so I wouldn't. Only he forgot where he put them, bha haha! I was laughing the hardest out of everyone at church!!!! Poor boy still doesn't have his peanut butter eggs.
