Keeler Life

We wanted to spend the last good day of fall outside and enjoying the leaves so someone told us about the Farmington Trail that goes by the side of Lagoon. It was beautiful and perfect for enjoying the leaves. We took alot of fun pics of the kids.
Brinlee loves to pose and here she is with some attitude. She is loving her preschool and is learning some spanish. She is always telling me what the Spanish word is for things i say. She is starting to sound out words and actually read her first little book all by herself this week. Even thought the only words in the book were, "I , See and Sam," I was so proud of her. She has been calling me "Mother" all the time lately. I am not sure where she learned to say that instead of Mom, but it is cute.
Spencer is our true boy and an active one. He is also so sweet. We try to read scriptures and say prayers every night before bed, but some nights we forget and put the kids to bed by just saying prayers. So last night Spencer said,"but Mom we didnt read scriptures" so I started to recite a scripture for him, but he said,"no, we need the book" so I got the Book of Mormon out and read a verse that he recited after me and he was much happier. Then we said prayers, I gave him a kiss and said goodnight. A few minutes later he was calling for me. I went into his room and he said,"But Mom we didnt bless you to get better" I said,"why do I need to get better, am I sick?" He relplied that he just wanted to, so I let him pray for me and said goodnight again. Then a few minutes later he again called for me. I went in to see what was the matter and he said, "but we didnt pray for me to get better." So I helped him say a prayer again and made sure we prayed that he was safe and would sleep well. It was so cute of him. Although he doesnt really understand what to say, he know that he wants to bless people. We truly learn from our sweet children.
