In Primary we learned the song, "Nephi's Courage." The first verse says, "The Lord commanded Nephi to go and get the plates." The second verse adds, "The Lord commanded Nephi to go and build a boat."
Recently, our family was attending an elders quorum party, and we had forgotten our eating utensils. I asked my husband, Craig, if he would go home and get them.My 4-year-old son, Randall, asked where his father was. I told him that he had "gone home to get the plates."
Randall then asked, "Is Daddy going to build a boat, too?" - LeAnne Madsen, West Jordan, Utah
