Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Jody, As no one in my family signed up for the talent show, I left my camera at home thinking that we were all going to eat pancakes and laugh at Old Lady Snidow's knock knock jokes! Connor just marched up there and asked if he could perform. You're right. I hope all our kids keep up their fearless sense of determination to do anything they want (except body piercing because I will simply have a COW if he does that one!!!!!

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 What a wonderful story! Ask around the church for pictures or maybe someone took home movies... Kids are such a joy! Connor sounds like he's full of life, what a wonderful memory!
