The Doctrine and Covenants Gets a New Name

Finn to me: Did you know its not the Doctor Ninn Covenants?

Me: Really what is it called then?

Finn: Its called the Doctor and Covenants.

Is it wrong that I didn't even try to tell him what its really called because I think its so cute. Also if you know Finn at all you know that he wouldn't listen to me anyway. Once he gets it in his head it is totally, well, scripture!

More of the World According to Finn

Yesterday while riding in the car Finn says to me, "Mom, did you know that the younger someone is, the hotter they are?"

"Really, Finn?" Wow, what the heck, this boy seriously understands the way the world works.

He proceeded to explain to me that young people have more skin than old people. As people get older their skin gets smaller, and sucks in. It gets weaker and colder and skin gets gone and comes away and you get colder. Then when the skin gets weaker and older the person just dies. Thats why kids don't really need jackets, and old people are always cold.

Totally makes sense! I love this guy!

Library Finn

Several months ago a new Library opened in Eagle Idaho.

It is very clean and organized.

And it has the nicest, and most helpful librarian.

I love that the dress code is so casual. The staff even wears gorilla jammies. And you get the best smile at checkout.

Finn absolutely loves running his library. He spends a lot of time creating original works of art to display and sell there. He also sells clothing that he has outgrown, and toys that no longer interest him. Recently when his school library had a book fair, so did the Library Finn. We got to purchase books during the book fair. The prices were based on the size of the book. A fact I didn't know until I purchased a huge art book for $200. Luckily I have 5 million in my library account. One time Finn asked me what book I was going to check out next. I picked one and told him I would come back and get it when I finished the stack I was reading. A few minutes later he found me and told me that there was a long line outside the library and that he was afraid all of the people were there to get my book. I rushed to the library and he led me in. I was so disappointed to find that the book I had been planning to get next was missing from the shelves, probably checked out by one of the invisible patrons. I expressed my sadness, but then Finn took me to the front of the line and opened his special librarian cabinet to reveal that he had put the book aside for me. I was overjoyed. If only I had realized that the painful c-section I went through to get Finn would also mean I would someday have special privileges at the library, I may have endured it more happily.
