The things they say.....


Yesterday Easton's little friend Brittany was over playing.
They were just chatting while they played,
and Brittany all of a sudden had a realization
that she needed to share with Easton.
She said very excitedly, " Easton, my Grandma has
a dog like Sophy!
His name is Chewy and he's a boy! They can get married!.....
They can get married in the doggy temple!"

To which Easton replied " That would be so silly!"



Then today Isaac was very upset about something. No,
he was ANGRY! He kept telling me how mad he was and he was
hitting the bed and growling.
I tried to point out to him that the reason he was so unhappy,
was because he was being selfish and letting Satan take
over his thoughts.
I asked him to let me know when he was ready to pray
and ask Heavenly Father to take the feeling away
and replace it with love.
So after a few minutes he decided he was ready and we prayed.
He comletely calmed down and was ready to come out of his room.

That night during his personal prayeres he said,
" Thank You for taking the (mom, what's that word?) selfish out of me."

Such a good boy. Truly!

My friend Melinda has a tradtion to roll or race the eggs

Because we used hard boiled eggs.
