Said Evan...

For the morning breakfast prayer....

Evan said, "Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for the food, Bless the food...(some thought and a pause)...bless mom to be nice to me today, help me be happy, Name of Jesus Christ Amen."

We had a bit of a struggle this morning as we were gathering for family scriptures, listening ears weren't yet turned on and some yelling/screamy voices and not sharing. So I took away the source of all the problems; a pool blow up toy of Buzz and Woody that is in the shape of a rocket ship. Evan spied that one and a couple of other floaty toys that I bought. He then proceeded to break them out of their boxes and retrieve the pump and blow them up. Surprisingly he is very good at using the pump. Once again his listening ears weren't on as I repeatedly asked him to not blow them up and to quit playing with the pump, for fear that they would pop and the pump would break.

Only 2 more sleeps until he can use them at the pool.
