So this is what Ann told me.
Jeremy was reading to the boys from the children's version of the Book of Mormon. (Stories are shortened and include pictures.) They were at the part where Laman and Lemuel are angry with Nephi because he insists they keep trying to get the brass plates from Laban. They're murmuring, and they're trying to do harm to Nephi.
An angel comes, straight from heaven. He stops Laman and Lemuel and gives them a talking to, no doubt. I don't know how much is in the children's version.
Anyway, this angel comes. They, Laman and Lemuel, see him. They hear him. But as soon as the angel leaves, they start in again with their murmuring and their threats.
I don't know if Jeremy asked a question. Ann didn't say so. I think what Charlie said was just his honest and immediate response.
He said, "They don't have anything in their hearts." He's nearly four.
This is not an accurate account. Jeremy was reading to Charlie from the actual Book of Mormon. And then, after he stopped reading, Jeremy restated what he had just read, summarizing it. Then Charlie summed it up himself, almost as you said "They had nothing in their hearts."
