Connor Says...

So for all my LDS friends out there you will get a kick out of this. There is a new version of the movie Johnny Lingo now that tells "the whole story." In it, if you haven't seen it, is this young boy (who becomes Johnny Lingo) that builds a one-man boat at escapes from an island where he isn't accepted only to land on the island where a man named Johnny Lingo lives. If you haven't seen or heard of it you are probably confused. Anyways, cute movie. Back to the story...the boat he builds he has paddle with his hands, at least until he gets to where he can use his sail.

So, I was reading a children's book of mormon with Connor today. It's this great simplified picture board book. I highly recommend it to all you parents out there. We were reading about Nephi and the ship he had to build to sail across the ocean. Connor was telling me, by looking at the pictures, what the book was about and when he came to that page he told me. "They are building a boat to sail in the ocean, and they have to move like this (followed by a swimming/paddling motion), just like Johnny Lingo." Anyways, I thought it was too cute.

For another story, later we were playing on our LoveSacs and he was doing a cool jumping move. He really wanted me to join in so he says, "Come on Mom! Try it! It's sooo cool!" What a cute we have!
