As all of my blog friends know, my little Jacob is pretty close to perfect (we'll just pretend that he didn't write an x on the wall this week or clog the sink). Last week while buying new scriptures for Zach to take to seminary Jacob decided that he needed to have his own Book of Mormon. Never mind that the only words he is reading are "mom, dad, cat, hat, Jacob and any fast food name within a 30 mile radius). So we bought the tiny Book and he has kept it with him pretty much non-stop. He calls it "the book of answers". Of course some of the answers it contains are ones such as "mom should buy us ice cream" or "yes, I should stay up". Zach and his friends were hanging out on our porch and Jacob was so excited to show Torie his book of answers. He explained to them that if they had any questions he'd find the answer. It was a great reminder of the faith of children and the wonderful relationship they have with our Savior. On Sunday he ran to Zach's room to wake him up saying, "Zach, Zach, it's Sunday, I have to learn about the gospel". I am so grateful for his amazing testimony.
