One my twins got a little restless during stake conference yesterday. I pulled him on my lap and said something like, "Maybe when you grow up, you'll be the stake president. You'll have to find out what God wants your stake to know and you'll tell them."
His response: "I will say, 'this meeting is cancelled . . . forever.'"
My 10 year old just said the sweetest thing after reading The Diary of Anne Frank tonight.
Him: I wish Encyclopedia Brown was real and he could figure out who betrayed The Franks and the VanDans.
Me: Are you going to pay him a quarter? (For those of you who aren’t aware this is Encyclopedia’s going rate)
Him- with tears starting to brim in his eyes: I have over $100 saved and I would give him all of that if he could figure it out.
He might blur fact and fiction but the kid’s got heart.
