Farmer Coop

*Incident retold by Grandpa Lee (whom I find a very reliable source) as I laid low this day.*


Sunday, May 4th, Cooper came home from church and had his favorite snack...an apple. Unfortunately Cooper is notorious for eating 8-10 bites of his apple and then proclaiming he's done. In this particular instance, Cooper had eaten just enough to know he was close to the seeds and started digging them out of the core. For some reason he was on a mission to plant himself an apple tree. (We think we have one apple tree, maybe two in our backyard, but aren't sure yet). Seed in hand, Cooper abandoned his less than half-eaten apple and decked out in his church clothes (and Spider-man sandals since he can get those on himself), grabbed a shovel from the shed and proceeded to go plant himself an apple tree in our back yard. He even watered it. I'm not sure this was an appropriate Sabbath day activity, but I'm sure Heavenly Father got a kick out of it.

That is great! I think Heavenly Father would be pleased as well as humored. ;o)
