This could become a weekly column, since every Sunday, the leaders in primary come to me with a new Trenton story, or we personally hear or witness them. Let's see if I can remember them all...
- The time he said the opening prayer in primary and in the middle of the prayer cried out, "I don't want to die."
- The time he told them his favorite scripture story was Adam and E...gypt.
- Of course, the best was when they were talking about family home even and how sometimes you can sing with out the piano for FHE, because not every family has pianists (can you see where this is going?). Trenton piped up, "boys have penises!"
- We may need to work on his secular vs. religious education. When they were talking about having agency, he started talking about evil A.C.M.E. agents from the Carmen Sandiego game.
- And just last week, the Bishop was in talking about the story of David and Goliath. And when he asked what the giants name was, Trenton shouted "The Pickle!" (I guess he is more familiar with the Veggietales version than the actual scriptural account).
- You know the kid has a reputation, when they make him wait to give his talk in primary, until the microphone is working, because the adults can't wait to hear what will happen. Well, he gave his talk (pretty long one, for a 3-year-old), and it was all going a little too well, until he finished and immediately announced loudly from the pulpit, "I gotta go pee-pee!" The older primary boys thought that was hilarious and all suddenly had to go "pee-pee," too.
Am I forgetting any, those of you who are in primary?
And here are a couple related to parenting:
- We have discussed the importance of giving children choices in our parenting. Barry's version of this, is usually asking the children if they want to do things the easy way or the hard way. Trenton had been getting in a lot of trouble, and was pleased that Barry was posing the "easy way or hard way" question to his sister, instead, this time. Before she had a chance to say anything, he piped up with "Hard way for Kira, Hard way for Kira!"
- And just this morning, to his dad, he said "I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at your BEHAVIOR!"

I seriously can't stop laughing! Trenton is a hoot!
HILARIOUS!! I love the "I don't want to die!" in the middle of prayer. He is just too funny.
Kendra--these are too, too funny! Jeff didn't tell the me the pickle story :)
I have been catching up on your blog...I'm loving all the great pictures of Kira at her performances--it looks like she loves to perform and does well at it too!
P.S. I LOVE the absolutely adorable photo of Tessa in your new header!
I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at your BEHAVIOR!
Holy cow! That post about our house was only up for minutes, and you already found it. What timing, huh? We made our offer the first week of May, so it's actually been a long closing process. Good luck with your new house, too!
So, by the way, Sarah laughed when I told her that Trenton said Adam and E...gypt! I mean, come on. Who wouldn't! He's a funny guy.
gotta love these boys!
On another subject, you may have done this tag before, but if not, then... TAG, you're it.
The Reynolds Cousins all got stomach aches rotfltho (a lesson in chatspeak: "rolling on the floor laughing their heads off.")
That kid is hilarious! I hope you continue to write this stuff down, because then you can look back and think, times with him were easier then than they are now!
