Temples

Our Connor is very energetic and can be very stubborn at times, it takes a lot for me to even keep up with him, and his stubbornness can ruin the mood very easily. On the flip side he is also very sweet and tender hearted. He has a very special bond with his brother, and is always trying to make him laugh and smile, Connor even has given one of his Lightening McQueen cars to Ammon, which is HUGE! (Connor used to never share any of his Lightening McQueen's with anyone...and yes he has multiple ones).

One thing that Connor loves is the temple. It honestly doesn't matter which temple, but he loves to look at temple pictures, to go up and walk on the temple grounds and to touch the temple. Connor even loves watching The Mountain of the Lord, which is a movie about the building of the Salt Lake City temple. Connor is also starting to learn the different names of temples, the top two he knows are Salt Lake City and Logan. When it's warm enough outside he asks to go say goodnight to the temple, luckily enough for him if you go to the sidewalk by our house you can see the Logan temple. At night  during his bedtime routine we also have to sing I love to see the temple, and he joins in with us, as well as points to the picture of the temple that is on his wall next to his bed. 

I love his bond with the temple, and I hope it continues to grow as he grows. His testimony on temples builds mine up and I am so lucky to have my sweet Connor forever.
