At the Omaha zoo in July - we were in the bat cave where it smells pretty bad. Kate asked if I would hurry out with her - and when we got out she said,
Ah, that's better. It just smells like horse manure now and I love that smell.
At t-ball game,
If I gallop like a horse I get to base so much faster than if I just run to the bases.
Molly was being a Mommy's helper for a family friend this summer and we were driving to pick her up,
I wish Molly was in a different family so she could be a Mommy's helper to me, sometime.
My new friend Lucy told me that TV can turn your brain to mush! One time at school she said she learned a LOT of new stuff and that night she watched so much TV and the next day she couldn't remember any of it!
Did you know Joey's real name is Joseph?
Mom: "Oh, just like Jesus' Dad?"
No, just like his STEP dad. His real dad is God.
Tucking Kate into bed the week of her birthday,
Mom, will you please just tell me the color of my birthday present?
Mom: "Sure, Kate - it is silver."
Ohhhhh, is it num-chucks?
Reading a book, Kate asked us,
What's a boomerang? I explained that it comes back to you when you throw it.
Well, that's impossible. It must be electronic for it to know where you are to come back!
Does LOL mean "love our life"?
While coloring,
I would have such a good life if I just had a good purple marker right now.
After having a babysitter the night before,
Mom, Cappy's jacket was a size 8 and she is 23!!
I am really trying not to think about Joey, Mom. I am trying to focus at school, like you told me to. It's like hard to explain. It's like my brain doesn't like him but my body (heart) likes him.
Gave a cupcake she made to Rocky our elf and said to him,
Here's a cupcake for you to share with Santa or I guess you can keep it for yourself, but have a good heart when you make your decision.
We were all singing Christmas songs in the car with other kids in our car too- everyone happy and joyful. Out of nowhere from the way back, Kate says,
So, do you think it was scary living when the Nazis were alive?
While I was driving the car and (obviously) facing forward with Kate and Molly in the back seat car seats,
Mom, you just spit on me.
Mom, the bottom of your foot feels like the top of queso. You the know the thin layer of the top of the dip that dissolves when you dip a chip in it and stir it around?
If I had a body part I was not fond of, it would be my nose. However, I've never mentioned this to anyone especially not the girls. One night, while cuddling, Kate was stroking my nose from the side and said,
Mom, you have the most beautiful nose. It is so smooth and has so much love coming out of your nostrils.
