differences


i know i've blogged about the differences of boys and girls before, but it continually amazes me how they just come wired differently.

my recent example has to do with how my kids read the book of mormon before they can actually read.

before maria could read, she would "read" the book of mormon like it was a recipe book. we would be sitting in sacrament meeting and i would hear maria say, "add two cups of sugar and one cup of berries" and the like.

hudson's book of mormon reads differently. "and the man shoot the lion and the lion jump on the man and the man dropped his gun and the lion ate the gun" and so forth. in fact, a couple of days ago there was apparently a passage in which Jesus killed something. i don't even know where he gets this stuff about guns. we don't own toy guns and we discourage shooting people even for play. boys really are different.

Chris and I laughed so hard at Hudson's Book of Mormon story. He never ceases to make us laugh. I love how he told me that he thinks the new baby boy should be named "Sidey". Not Sidey Nuttall, "Just Sidey". Ha ha!

Haha! It's true, they are different. I like how the lion eats the gun in the end. Boys.

P.S. I am calling the baby Sidey no matter what you name him.

we're thinking about naming him justice so we can say we have liberty and justice for all in our home.
