Prayer?
Maddy, left this message on my cell phone that just made me laugh:
"Hi, dad I was just wondering what time you guys will be back. So, could you please call me back, In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen."
Obviously, she was a little tired.

Swashbuckler Movie?!
Our family loves this movie! Well, maybe it's not a movie! If the video doesn't work try the URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jds1QZrJq1Y.
Oooh! A cookie! Yum!
We went to the Oquirrh Moutain Temple open house today with the family. It was a beautiful building. There were a lot of people there. After viewing the building there was a tent with refreshments that we went into and got cookies. Good stuff.
After getting cookies, we head back to the van in the parking lot to leave. On the way back my 5-year-old son saw on the cement a cookie that was half eaten. Well, he thought it looked tasty so he picked it up and started eating it. He was pretty happy!
This boy is the one who eats anything he sees that is out. Everyone's cup is his cup. If there is a cup out he will drink whatever is left in it.

Did you ever do this... I hope not!
My son came to me yesterday and asked, "Dad, is it okay to drink your pee?" I told him, "I sure wouldn't do that, but I guess you could, though perhaps you could get sick from it." I don't know how now, but my son said something that clued me in that my son's little brother who is 5 had done just that. They had been making lemonade and it sounded like they had peed in the cup with the lemonade and the little brother drank it!
Once I figured that out I, I had a thought. I said aloud so they could hear, "You if someone did drink some pee, they could get very sick." My 8 year-old son asked, "How long?" "Possibly a whole month, might even need to go to the hospital." I explained that the pee if concentrated in the stomach could cause damage to the stomach wall. "However," I said, "If a person will do somersault for 10 minutes, it will prevent the pee from becoming concentrated in the stomach because the liquids in there will be moving all around. If a person did that they would not get sick but be okay."
I was doing the dishes while saying this. Then I noticed my 5-year-old boy quietly sneak from the kitchen into the family room. Suddenly, he started doing somersaults in the living room. I asked, "What are you doing?" He said, "I just want to do somersaults. Dad could you set the timer for 10 minutes?" So I did, but I only did it for 2. After continuously doing somersaults for almost 2 minutes, he said, "I'm dizzy!"
The timer went off and he stopped, walking away like he was drunk. Then I was surprised when my 8-year-old said, "Dad, could you set the timer for me? I want to try doing somersaults too!" I laughed. My wife who heard everything, still does not quite believe that her 2 sons actually drank pee. I don't know that many of us are able to boast about that... thankfully!
