And here are the things he said - mostly before the opening prayer. (Then I gave him a stack of books, some Cheerios, and he was mostly quiet after that - except for when he spilled Cheerios all over the floor, or growled at the people behind us.)
"I see mommy. I love mommy, and Daddy. See that girl in
The pink dress? She needs to cover up. I can see her undies. I see
Brother Finch. [Opening song, hymnal] Dad, is this the page? Dad, can I have some bubble gum? I see that girl with a black dress, but I can't see her undies. Hey dad - I see those horns! [The organ]. Dad - there's Jesus over there!.Are we going to be on this page for a long long time? [in the hymnal] [opening prayer] Hey - I see my teacher! The one with the black hair. I mean Sister Allred. Dad, look! Dad! Are boys faster than girls swimming? Or are girls faster than boys swimming. I think boys are faster when they do this! [hands clasped together - moving up and down really quickly]. Can I have a drink? Now can I have a drink? [burp] Dad- that sounded like a horsey, huh? Hey, I need a drink. Here Hannah [handing her the hymnal]. Hold this with two hands. … Dad, I'm finished with this book. [New book - Tithing] I love this book. I need to go pee. I need to go right now. [ Running down the stairs to go to the bathroom] I'm going pee!!! WEEEE!!! [Getting back to the bench, drew's having a hard time sitting down; I pull him by the back of his pants] OH! Jacob - Dad pulled my by my underwear! Playing with the magnet board later - "Dad - look at my rocket!" Dad - that man looks like Jesus! Are there germs on me? Am I getting sick? L- L- Light. H- h- h- Hannah. Sh- sh- shark. Can we do the moken-control games to do the games on tv? I mean, not after this day but the next day. When cousins are here then we can do it?"

I'm exhausted just reading that. And amused.
