Alexandria's Tribute to Gordon B. Hinckley

As always, we enjoyed Conference. But Alexandria had a rough time adjusting to Conference without President Hinckley. She even protested for a little while. She didn't want to watch she only wanted to hide in my room. While she was in there she wrote a little book. It must have helped her because after she wrote it she came out of hiding and sat down with us to watch the rest of Conference.

President Hinckley's Book of How Nice He Was
I'm sure a lot of people liked President Hinckley
Hinckley was a nice guy.
But he died.
We will miss President Hinckley.
(She drew herself crying.)
My favorite line from Conference this time, "Children pick up your toys." - Elder Ballard
