Colton!

Colton likes to read. He is really good at reading the scriptures during scripture time. He also loves to read mystery books and anything that tells you how to build fun things. He is still our little bug lover! He has a stink bug in a fish bowl he is keeping as his pet. He feeds it apple slices, any kind of juicy fruit, and the occasional grass hopper. Every where we go he looks for bugs to find. The other day while walking to the park, Libby stepped on a spider. Colton was furious with her! He gave her a good lecture about all wild bugs being part of mother nature and the gifts that Heavenly Father has given us, so we shouldn't Kill them" just because"! Of course Libby decides it would be best to step on every bug she sees just to make Colton mad. If Colton gets the opportunity to go hunting with his dad he is so excited, can't sleep, and has the best attituded I have ever seen! He does everything you ask him and is very attentive when your talking to him. This is very unlike Colton. Last time he got to go with Uncle Seth, Howard, and Hugh Antelope hunting. Howard was very impressed with him. He didn't complain about all the walking, or his very cold feet, and he got a very good anatomy lesson when they quartered up the Antelope. School is very different. Colton has discovered being the class clown is way better than listening to the teacher. He also talks way too much. He is worse than a girl. He can literally talk a leg off a donkey! He is a very smart kid too. I just wish he would let all his smartness out in his school work and not on me!
