Carson's "Scrippers"

On Sunday Carson was deeply interested in Mike's scriptures. He wanted to hold them and "read" them and then he asked where his own scriptures were. So, Mike found him a Book of Mormon of his very own. He carries it around and tries to "read" it. This particular Book of Mormon has some pictures in the beginning of it. Here's a conversation we had this morning:

Carson: Mommy, I found Jesus.

Me: (I was getting breakfast ready and wasn't looking at him) Oh, where is he?

Carson (with a big smile): In my scrippers. Mommy, Jesus was hiding in my scrippers!!!!

This afternoon I had him lay on his bed for his nap and he begged me to let him hold the Book of Mormon. I finally let him (I usually don't let him play or read anything in bed). I discovered that reading scriptures make him sleepy too! In a few minutes he was totally asleep. Yet another reason why I'm thankful for the Book of Mormon!
