Every night, the kids and I read a story out of the picture book version of the Book of Mormon. They simplify the stories but still cover all of the important stuff. Tonight when Taylie brought me the book so we could read, our conversation went like this:
Taylie: "What is the name of our story tonight?"
Me: "It is called 'Alma and his people escape.'"
Taylie: "Oh. 'Alma and the pizza he ate.' Let's read!"
I was pretty much rolling around with the giggles...it didn't set a very spiritual tone.
Then after we were done, Luke wanted a turn to "read". He grabbed the book and turned to the part with Nephi and his ship. He was instantly convinced that it was a ship that belonged to pirates. The following conversation happened between him and Taylie:
Luke: "Pirates! Argh, Matey!"
Taylie: "That's Nephi's boat."
Luke: "No, Pirate Ship."
Taylie: "These are Nephi's brother's, Lamen and Lemon, and they are mean!"
They then continued to tell stories about the mean pirates on Nephi's ship named Lamen and Lemon. :)
Nothing beats ending the day with everyone giggling! :)
