Conversations

Dad: Hyrum, what did you learn at church today?
H: Not to touch chickens and geeses.

A conversation between Hyrum and his new primary teacher

Teacher: What does your dad do?
H: He brings home money.
Teacher: But what does he do for his job?
H: I don't know, he just brings home money.

Economically speaking, this is at least a step up from when he was asked the same question at preschool and responded that his dad works in the garage.

H: Abraham, when you grow up, are you going to be nicer to your kids than Dad?

***

Dad: You can only kiss when you have a wife.
A: I can't wait 'til I have a wife!

Hyrum was nagging his brother about everything from the way Abraham brushed to his teeth to how he held his blanket. I told him to mind his own business and he responded with:

H: Mom! You're always acting like you're in charge! Don't you know that you're wrong I'm always right?!?

Hyrum was pretty sick one night and in between throwing up, while curled up in my lap, he asked in a quiet voice:

Mommy, maybe we should say a prayer to help me feel better.
