kids really do say the "darndest things." for fhe tonight, we talked about eternal families. to start off, i asked jensen and burton what a family is. burton said that it is a group of people. i was impressed. then i asked who/what is in a family. this is how it went from there, pretty much word for word:
burton - ummmm, people from africa....
jensen - i know, babies and mommies and daddies and uncles and nephews.....
burton - and normal people....
jensen - and aunts, and grammas, and grampas.
burton - and some people who don't see....without glasses
jensen - or if they wear contacts.
to get back on track, i showed them some pictures of when brent and i got married and explained to them why we get married in the temple. since we were married almost 8 years ago, brent and i look different, and the boys noticed:
jensen - i don't like how dad looks...i mean he looks different.
burton - his hair looks like an elephant tail.
whereupon evan walks around me, lifts up the back of my shirt, and asks where my elephant tail went. then he lifts up his shirt, points to his tummy and proudly says, "here it is!"
did they get the point?
