Be Like Nephi, Dad!

Ok, so a while back we had a Family Home Evening about Nephi and how he was so obedient and always did was Heavenly Father asked him to do without complaining (this was to teach Jaxon about Nephi, but we figured it couldn't hurt to try to persuade Jaxon to be more obedient when we ask him to do something!).

Anyway...whenever Jason or I talk about the baby coming, we call him "the baby" because, no we still have not decided on a name. Well, Jaxon thinks his name should be Landon so he refers to the baby as "Baby Landon". Well, one night we were saying family prayers and Jason said something like "please bless Mom and the baby." Well, Jaxon wasn't too pleased that he didn't say "Baby Landon", so after the prayer, he took Jason's face in his hands and looked him right in the eyes and said, "Dad, be like Nephi...it's Baby Landon." I think he was trying to tell Jason he needed to be like Nephi and obey me and Jaxon and call the baby Landon...what a sweet boy! I just have to say, if we end up naming this baby anything but Landon, Jaxon is not going to be very happy!
