On Monday I was at Trent and Michelle's house, supposedly helping her, but really just cooking dinner, telling her to sleep when the baby did, and loving those kids.
All morning I told Enoch to find me a story book and I would read to him. He had other ideas. So, when Levi came home from kindergarten, and after he had eaten lunch, I told him I would read to him if he could bring me some books.
"I'm going to write some words," he said, getting a small notebook. Then we had a half hour of, "how do you spell this, Grandma?"
Periodically I would say, "If you get me some books I'll read to you and Enoch."
Finally he had had enough. "Grandma," he said, with his hands on his hips. "When I get finished you can read my words."
And so it was.
In his story there was a king and all manner of excitement, with words all run together and letters pointing backwards.
A five year old author. I'm expecting great things from Levi.
PS Baby Hyrum is number eight!

awwww congratulations!!!!!!!!!
Looks like Levi is taking after his grandma. Congratulations on your new little grandson.
If the little author wants to get published I can put him in touch with my son.
aww how lovely!
Nothing like a new precious baby and a grandchild who loves to write stories. Enjoy!!
congratulations on the new baby! Elora loves to write and draw too, but it can get old being asked how to spell something every five minutes!
Ah Lynne, how I miss you. I hope you are loving life and all those little ones.
