Understandably, it was a very sad day in the Bobbitt household. The kids spent most of the day reminiscing and reflecting on their brief time with Pine Cone. Poor Connor, he really is taking it well. Of course, every time he talked about Pine Cone he shed a few tears. He felt a lot better after he talked to Daddy. Perhaps it would be easier to take if we knew the cause of death. As no autopsy was performed, we will never know for sure what took our beloved Pine Cone from us. I tried to tell Connor this was just part of God's plan. Here's the problem though, Connor does not believe in God (there is no DNA evidence to prove he existed, after all). Or so he says. In fact, that was the big announcement yesterday afternoon. It's alright though, as Uncle Mike does not believe in God and he turned out okay. This, of course, is open for some serious debate. The man wears and apron and bonnet after all. I'm thinking, that's not alright. Perhaps Connor should discuss this with his Aunt Annette. Unfortunately, the conversation did not get any better then that. Elizabeth was quite indignant at this announcement, "I suppose you don't believe in Adam and Eve either?" "Duh Libby, the first people on the earth were Australopithecus (yes, I had to look up the spelling on that one)" "Whatever Connor, dinosaurs were just germs. And anyway, I really want to go to Catholic School." "Libby, we are not going to Catholic school. And if you believe in God, you must believe in the devil. I don't. He's just stupid anyway, who would want to hang out under ground where it's all flames. It makes no sense. And I'm tired of all this holy talk,." Katherine's contribution to the discussion, "I'm hungry." Speaking of Katherine, she lost her other front tooth last night, with a little tug from Arlene. And of course it bled like a stuffed pig. So, in the space of an hour, we discovered the hamster died, buried it, Stu and Arlene stopped by for a visit, Katherine lost a tooth and bled everywhere, and Elizabeth sobbed her eyes out. Just a regular old Saturday night at the Bobbitt's.

Now mother, I didn't say "I" didn't believe in hell, that's what Connor said. Calm down woman!
Then when you typed that section you should have said quote, unquote to signify that it was from Connor and not you.
