Spoiler alert
Posted by Dalene | March 15, 2008 | 5 Comments
The other night we were finally nearing the end of Alma in our family scripture reading (I’m not even going to tell you when it was we started), when my eight-year-old suddenly burst out anxiously and with affection, “Helaman doesn’t die, does he?”
Shhh. I won’t tell him if you won’t.

Oh no!!!
I can’t remember who wandered off into the wilderness and was never heard from again. THAT was a huge discussion at our house for awhile. Did he get eaten by a jaguar?

You know the best part is I usually think they’re not really listening. But apparently some of it must be sinking in…
