Wallpaper

We just finished having family home evening. As usual we were trying to keep the kids attention and occasionally checking to see if they had actually heard anything we read. I was reading a story about a family who used the hair from some dead buffalo to spin yarn to make mittens. The mittens were used to keep the hands of the stone cutters warm while helping build the Nauvoo temple in the winter. Ethan didn't seem like he was listening so Randall stopped and asked "Ethan, what did they make with the yarn they had spun?" Ethan thought for a moment, and then confidently replied... Wallpaper!

Nice. I love the way kids minds work and I love the things that come out of their mouths! Great job holding FHE though! We do it way too sporadically at our house!

HA! Sounds like some of the responses Brett gets in his Teacher's Quorum...too funny. Glad that you guys are doing well and that picture of the three sweeties is just too cute.

Too funny. Kid comments are the best! The picture you put up of your kids the cutest thing ever!
