Clark had been attending Sunbeams for three weeks when I asked him what songs he was singing in Primary. He preceded to sing the words "family, power to choose, child of God, and Holy Ghost." I was unfamiliar with the song he was singing so I searched the Primary's website and found the same words to the Primary's 2012 theme song, "Child of God." I was so impressed that Clark had been paying attention for his first three weeks in Primary to be able to sing it from memory. Here is a video of Clark singing that inspired song after only three weeks in Primary.

This video perfectly illustrates Victoria's love of babbling and Clark's love of slurping his cereal milk! You'll want to turn up the volume for this one. :)

This is a video of the first time Victoria was able to actually jump in her jumperoo.
As you can tell, she was super excited about it.

While I was nursing Victoria tonight, Clark was in the toy room reading books and playing with toys. A few minutes after beginning to nurse Victoria I heard Clark crying. I thought it sounded like he may have fallen or tripped over something and I figured he'd calm down and continue playing. Every few minutes or so I'd hear a muffled cry and I suppose I didn't think much of it because he's recently begun to overdramatize any type of owie. Then, around 2 minutes left to feed Victoria, I heard him scream. I finished with Victoria, put her in her bed and ran into the play room to see what was the matter. I found Clark behind the couch bawling his eyes out and completely terrified. After calming him down a bit, he explained to me that there were two big, flying bugs in the room and they bit him and were coming after him (there were two crane flies in the room). He said he was too scared to go into Victoria's room because the bugs wanted to get him. Poor boy! He has such a healthy imagination. He was frightened and couldn't understand why I hadn't come. He said over and over, "and you wouldn't come." Break my heart. I felt awful for not coming to see what was the matter sooner. I emphatically apologized and promised him that if I ever heard him screaming again I'd come faster than I did this time. He eventually calmed down and I carried that sweet, little boy into his room; tucked him into bed, sang him a lullaby, said a prayer with him so he wouldn't be scared anymore, and then kissed him good night. He's my favorite little boy ever.
