Atreyu is such a smart kid. He has an excellent memory and a great imagination. Here are a couple conversations Jesse and I have had with him recently. They're pretty funny.
Jesse was teasing Atreyu and here is the conversation they had:
J: Atreyu, if you keep sucking your thumb it's gonna fall off.
A: It won't fall off.
J: You better stop sucking it so it doesn't fall off.
A: It won't fall off. It has bones.
He was very serious when he said this.
A little background for this story. I try to read scriptures to Atreyu every night and one of the stories we read was when the angel came to Alma and the sons of Mosiah and told them they needed to repent and follow the commandments. Jesse and Atreyu were playing super heroes and one of the good guys was turned bad and he and the rest of the bad guys were doing bad guy things. Atreyu grabbed his X-Men Angel action figure and he yelled to the bad guys, "Be Good!" Oh, my goodness, it was so funny. Jesse and I agreed that how can you argue with an angel who tells you to be good so all the bad guys became good. It made me happy that he had gotten something from our reading...I just think it's funny that this is what he got.
