Ryan Style Miracles


Sometimes it's the little things that can count as full blown miracles - which means we had two Ryan style miracles today.
No, not Ryan Stiles! Ryan style!

The first took place at church today (how appropriate.)  Ryan informed us last week that he didn't want to participate in the kids Christmas musical because he didn't want everyone looking at him. We tried explaining that people looked at him in soccer, and in concerts at school, and when the choir sings at church, but we couldn't convince him that this was the same thing. We finally relented and said he didn't have to do the musical - mostly because forcing him to would only make everyone miserable - but that he would have to tell the music director on his own, we wouldn't do it for him. Ryan went into church fully prepared to break the news to Mr. Eric, but sometime between church and choir starting Ryan changed his mind. We told him that was fine, but this was it. He couldn't change his mind again. Well, he went into rehearsal and rocked it out! Mr. Eric said he did a great job and tried his hardest from rehearsal start to end. Guess we'll have two guys on stage after all.

The other Ryan style miracle took place at dinner tonight when Ryan willingly took more than one bite of the string cheese manicotti I made AND pronounced "I kind of like it!"

Can I get a hallelujah!?
