Tired Buns

I was making dinner tonight and Jack came in to share some thoughts.  It was more about imaginary friends - train friends and others.  It was another one of those times where he just keeps going.  He goes and goes and goes and I pretty much have no idea what he is talking about.  Sorry pal, at some point in your life you might be reading this and I sadly have to admit to that.  It is simply exhausting trying to keep up with everything.  Somehow he does and I am sure that every word spoken makes perfect sense to him.  It certainly is an entertaining ride.  Sometimes I just need to be able to catch my breath. 

I did learn the purpose of video games tonight.  Yes I was informed that video games were invented to help people rest their buns from all that walking.  I did not know this.  Jack then told me that his buns have gotten way tired like that.  So there it is people, got tired buns?  Play a video game. 

Natty and I reviewed her Faith in God booklet today.  She had a couple of things to get done before we focus on the last section of the book.  One of the things she did was write a poem.  I thought she did a great job.  I would post it here but I did not get permission from her to do so.  Anyhow, we are on to the last part and she needs a refresher on some of the Articles of Faith that she has forgotten.  I think she is getting excited to go into Young Womens.  It will be really good for her.  She is a great girl. 

Quick Natty story.  We pulled into Church this morning and got out of the truck.  Natty came around and asked me if I could see her underwear.  Yep, plain as day.  Very nice stripes on those.  I sent the boys in and we ran home to fix the problem.  She was kind of surprised that they could be seen and we laughed about it.  Then we jumped out again after returning to church and the neon green undies were just as easy to see.  Only kidding, they were white and visible only in certain light.  We laughed. 

Ben Jackson and I chatted after Church.  He and his wife teach Andy in Primary.  He told me that Andy is doing great and shared a story in their lesson about hiking in Alasks and getting his foot stuck in hole.  Ben said he wasn't sure if it was true but with that age group you just kind of take their words for it.  I assured him that Andy did spend the summer in Alaska and the story was most likely true.  I asked Andy about it later and he shared his story with me too.  That a boy Andy. 

I'm going to have to find out from Jack what the purpose of  a computer is.  If it involves helping you rest your weary buns then hey, I'm in.
