Cute Words!

I have a lot of catching up to do. We've been to Disneyland, Nevada with family, Easter, and the Temple devotional on Easter. Before my catch-up blogs I wanted to document a few cute things that Ollie has said the last couple of days.


Luke was playing with the kids last night while I was getting dinner ready. He told them they need to use their imaginations more. Oliver started thinking about it, grabbed some toys and said "Dad, look what I imaginationed!" I thought it was so cute!


We spent Wednesday through Saturday in Logandale, Nevada with all of my family. The kids had so much fun playing with all of their cousins. Oliver and his cousin Tyler have always had a lot of fun together. Anyway, on Monday I asked the kids if they wanted to play with their cousins (of course I meant Gracie and Ellie because they live around the corner). Oliver was so excited and screamed, "Yeah, I want to play with Tyler! Let's call him Mom". I told him that Tyler lives to far (Orem) and that I was sure Jill wouldn't be able to drive him here. He said, "Oh please Mom, lets just say a prayer that they can come". Of course we said a prayer but also discussed that Heavenly Father can't "make" Jill come here but we hope that he helped her have a desire to come here!

I think that there is nothing sweeter than a little child suggesting to pray for the simple things that they want. I'm thankful for Oliver's frequent reminders to stop and pray. When he can't find a toy, wants a friend to come over, and even when Luke's in California and we can't get a hold of him so Oliver can talk to him, he always suggests a prayer. I could certainly use the reminder to pray more frequently in my life. He's such a sweet boy!
