One day recently, my son Jeffrey wanted to drive one of our four wheelers down the street to Grandma's house. His Uncle Bill was driving it around a little out front. Bill said Jeff couldn't ride it because it was illegal and the cops would get mad....and it wasn't a good idea.
Well, my innocent, sweet 1st grader said:
"Bill, they couldn't put me in jail. All they could do is put me in "juvi" for a year....".
So whoever said they don't learn things in school anymore hasn't been to Saint George because my baby knows all about the legal system! Just wanted to share a priceless conversation with a dear boy. I love you Jeff! You make things fun! Love, MOM

Dental Floss and a door knob...
OK, on the lighter side, this new picture of Laura Lee and Jeffrey is a new favorite of mine. I sent them to bed and heard a bunch of door slamming, well pretty soon they came down stairs and showed me Jeff's newly lost tooth! They tied dental floss around the tooth, and to the door knob on Laura's bedroom door and kept slamming the door until it popped out! I never knew that actually worked! When Jeffy's teeth are loose, he sure wants 'em out fast...and Laura LOVES to pull teeth....I can't stand it!
MONDAY THOUGHT...
Well, here we are at Monday again, and I feel stumped for a thought of the week! It has been a hard start of the week. Missy's husband Phil suffered from an aneurism of the brain yesterday. He is in the ICU, but seems to be OK. They are keeping him there to run tests and observe him. We of course are praying for Phil, Lisa and the kids. Hawkley who is 10, and witnessed his mom's brain tumor, is I am sure upset to say the least. Phil is awake in the ICU and things look good. My sweet mother in law is having a tough time on her new chemo, and it is hard to see her so sick. I am so thankful we live so close to them so we can help out. Now, I know I promised a big enriching thought once a week, but the only one that keeps coming to my mind is from that old cartoon comic, THE FAR SIDE: (it's not as good without the picture, but I will try to explain...) A student is raising his hand in class, and says, "Teacher, MY BRAIN IS FULL." I kind of feel like that today~ I guess I'm wierd, but it still makes me laugh!
I pray that all of you are well and happy and for Susan and Phil. I know the Lord is mindfull of us and wants to bless and comfort us. Have a great week and thanks for all the comments guys, they make my day when I read them, love, jenny
P.S. for an actually great supply of thoughts, please go to LDS.ORG and read the conference talks from October. I printed off a few tonight to read to myself to "un-fill" my brain.:)
