Christmas Decorating

While at church this afternoon decorating for Christmas (yes, they put up no less than 14 trees!), my son saw some other kids running through the hall. They weren't up to anything, just being boys....and running. He turned to the lady he was helping and said, "That's not very mature of them." She later told me about it and I had a chuckle, because literally the moment before leaving our house, we had a talk with both kids about not running at church (because they have an inclination to), not being to loud (same inclination), and be helpful (inclination NOT to). We never said a word about mature behavior, but we did say we expect them to behave appropriately. Thankfully, they did.
