My almost 8 yr old went for his baptismal interview today , it was really nice-- when the bishop asked why we don't baptize babies- my sweet little boy responded that they would drown and he said you have to have the atomic priesthood. So sweet.
My 2 year old twins are so dang cute-- they are so happy when I understand what they want. they repeat everything I say. #6 talks more than #7. They both say "no way" , we couldn't find #6's toothbrush, he put his little arms up and said "it's all gone, can't find it, mom"-- he calls me mom instead of mommy like the other kids have. They say "me, turn" to say their nightly prayers and to get their diapers changed. They do not want to be potty trained, but I think they are ready-- we will probably do it soon. #7 loves pockets and carries all sorts of trinkets in them- dice,cars, toy planes, colored game pieces. He also likes to walk around with a little backpack and frisbees. When #6 takes something he shouldn't he smiles real cute and then throws it to give it back. It warms my heart when they hug each other or the other kids and say sorry.
#6 gets scared easily. We had to tell him there are no monsters in the house. He had a big red ant get stuck in his shirt and bite him a couple times before I figured out what it was-- so ther were some tiny ants-- he was scared of them we told him it was OK and the next day he told me "ants not get me". He was scared of bears too, my husband made some scary bear sounds and he went running- very concerned- then we had to tell him there are no bears in the house either. He also think that the city lights across the lake are fireworks.
They say peaches and Martha Speaks really cute. I am a lucky mom.
As if that weren't enough, my baby is adorable-- starting to smile and coo. He only cries when he's hungry or tired. My other children bring me great joy and satisfaction too. Life is good.
