As the same as most two year olds, Seth wants to do everything himself and be independent. When we read in the Book of Mormon, he wants his turn too. He got his own book and Grandpa Jenson wrote Seth's name in the front. He always makes sure that he has the right book and is quick to show me his name each time. He thinks it says "Seth Thomas the train Jenson." Since he can't read, he has been allowing Jennifer to help him. She will read two words and he will repeat them. He does pretty well. We sometimes have a good chuckle at the big words that he is saying and at the way that his little mouth messes up sometimes. Last night when it was his turn, he did not want Jennifer to help him read. We told him to go ahead. He got the book in front of him and said, "Behold." Then he looked at Jennifer like, "Was that right?" That is not what the verse said, but he knew that many verses start this way and it would
be a good guess.
When we ask Seth who's turn it is to pray, he always says that it is his turn. He does well and at least prays how he has heard us pray. If we try to help him, he says, "Not you, Me!" We keep trying and he takes our directions, reluctantly. We may have to start saying two prayers,
so he can get his turn too.

Seth is pretty funny. I like how he tells people that it is his turn to pray. All of the kids want to say the prayer at our house. Brinley usually says, "SSSShhhhh" a couple of times during her pray, because Brandon is trying to say the prayer at the same time. (She learned that from Bryce)
