Funny Connor

Our branch president shared a funny story. Last Sunday we were all sitting reverently during the sacrament. He was looking out at the congregation and he happened to notice  something was going on with our little Connor. He had his head down close to the desk and saw that he was licking the entire fold out desk top with his tongue- all over the whole surface. They he proceeded to draw with his finger on the desk with his own wet desktop canvas. It was so hard for President Sparrow to keep a straight face watching how serious he was going about his art business. In fact, both he and Brother Musick hit elbows at the same time, trying to show the other what they were both seeing. I think if I would have seen this event I might have been pretty grossed out. President Sparrow said it was one of the best things he has seen while sitting on the stand during church. That and watching the cadets asleep with their mouths open wide.
**Here at West Point we meet in a lecture hall, individual desks and chairs that fold up or down in rows, stepping down for each row toward the stage. The kids do love that they have their very own desk to use to draw or just to hold their place. Most of the time they are pretty good about not making too much noise, other times they can be quite restless.
