When we were down in Utah we were able to go and see the Joseph Smith movie at Temple Square, it was so good. During the movie Emree and I had this conversation:
Me: Emree do you know who that is?
E: Nope
M: Joseph Smith
E: Incredulously, "Like the one in my nursery book?!"
M: Yep
E: Mom then he goes into the forest and he sees Jesus Christ.
M: Yep you are right
Then after the first vision is portrayed she says, " See Mom I told you he saw Jesus Christ!"
Ahh the faith of a child. And she is learning something we are teaching her, at least what the nursery leaders are teaching. Their little minds soak up so much more than we think, gives me hope and is a little frightening at the same time.
I truly can't believe everything that the early saints went through especially the prophet. The older kids thought it was kind of scary because they showed the mob tar and feathering Joseph, which was awful! How thankful I am for the perserverance and faith in sticking to the truth no matter what came upon them. What power and faith they had, if only I can have a portion of that is my goal!

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!
First day of School!

It is so true how much their little minds soak up. I always have to watch what I tell them because they never forget either :)
