Ben


Last week we took the kids to the Draper Temple Open House.  It was a fun experience for them to see the inside of the temple.  Taking an 18 month old was quite the experience!  While in one of the sealing rooms, trying to have a spiritual moment, Ben started "singing" Sunbeam!  So I told him to fold his arms.  He starts mumbling a "prayer" so I decide to take him out in the hall so everyone else can enjoy the sealing room.  Out in the hall there were many people walking past us and Ben being the happy boy that he is, starts waving to everyone.  Everyone waves back until 1 man stops to shake his hand and comment on how happy his is.  After shaking hands, Ben decides not to wave but to stick his hand out to shake hands with everyone.  I would never believe that so many people would want to stop to shake his hand, but it was too funny to watch as even one man went to shake his hand only to have his friend step in front of him.  I thought he would walk away and not worry about it, but he didn't, he waited for 2 more people to shake Ben's hand so that he could.  Looks like Ben takes after his dad and may turn to politics too!  YIKES!!!!!

Good thing we love him or the prospect that he wants to run for office could turn us off!!! Seriously, he is the funniest little boy in our family. He takes after his siblings in being an all-around-GREAT kid. Thanks to you for being such a good mother.
