Smart.
Sean ordered these pictures of the 12 apostles and first presidency a few weeks ago. He decided to have the kids try to memorize them every night before bed. I thought the idea of dragging out bedtime even more was a terrific idea! I have to say I am humbled as Alanna learned all of them (with or without the picture and in order) within a week. Dallin has the first presidency down and almost all of the 12.
Funny.
Alanna and I watched like 5 minutes of the show called Little People, Big World. A reality show about two little people who are married and have four kids. She asked me why they were so short. I explained to her that's how HF made them, just like Embree and her cleft. I went on to explain that they had dwarfism and what that was. Then I used the example of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I then told her that we don't use the word 'dwarf' anymore because it's not polite-we should say 'little people'. I turned the TV off and she ran off to play. About a week later while Sean was having Alanna go over the first presidency Alanna named them quickly then said "hey, we shouldn't say Uchtdorf. We should say Uch-little people".
