nephi.

Tyler's favorite Book of Mormon hero is Nephi. 
Tyler has learned that Nephi never complains.

The other day Benny had to go to his room because he was pesting and whining and was down right crabby.  Tyler was following my instructions by cleaning up his room.  In the middle of clean up Tyler stops and looks at me.

Tyler "mom, i'm like Nephi.  i'm cleaning up good."
Me "I know, you're doing a great job!"
Tyler "benny's like Laman and Lemuel.  he's grumpy."
Me *laughing*

Poor Benny may grow up with a complex!

That is so cute! My Family Proclamation Teacher use to use the story of Nephi's family with his kids. When they were acting up he'd ask if they were being like Nephi or Laman and Lemuel. He is too cute!

Good luck with that Laman. Maybe he'll repent and be a good boy. That's really funny!
