i heart ... clayton's drawing

the other day my nephew clayton and i were coloring together.

i was coloring in a my little pony coloring book

because i'm not creative enough to draw,

but he was next to me drawing a picture.

i was very focused on coloring my pony

so i didn't even notice what he was drawing

until he was done.

when i finally took a look

i was fascinated.

i asked clayton to tell me about it.

here is what he told me:

*the people at the top of the page are

Heavenly Father and Jesus.

*the person at the bottom of the page is

Joseph Smith.

*the house is Joseph's house.

*the little yellow rectangle with the dots on it

at the bottom

are the golden plates.

*the big brown dot next to the golden plates

is the stone that was covering the golden plates.

*the brown rectangle under the stone is

"the log that moved the rock" off of the golden plates.

i asked clayton why Heavenly Father and Jesus

have hearts drawn on them

and he said,

"because they are so happy that

Joseph found the golden plates."

clayton may love swords,

but he really is the sweetest!
