Dude keeps me laughing!

So last night we were eating dinner and Dude starting spelling words of things on the table. He spelled cup, dish, spoon, etc. I said, "O.K., I'm going to give you a tricky one." He looked at me, grinned and said, "Bring it on!" He cracks me up! I asked him to spell "fork". He said, "That's an easy one. F-O-R-" He then closed his eyes put his hands up to his head and kept whispering to himself, "C or K? C or K?" He looked up and said, "I'm gonna guess. Is it K?" He was thrilled to be right. I love watching him learn.

Then during scripture study we were reading about Nephi getting the plates from Laban. Dude said, "I love this story! Nephi cuts off Laban's arms and then breaks his bow!" Not quite how the story goes but if you get credit for blending three stories into one then he wins the gold prize.

And if all that weren't enough, when I went to tuck him in last night I noticed that he was wearing regular clothes. I asked why he put on school clothes after the shower instead of p.j.'s. He said, "I'm trying to save time in the morning so I can sleep longer." Pretty creative, he's always thinking.
