My children never cease to amuse me, so to lighten your mood during this busy and fretful time of year, here are a few of their sayings:1) Amaleah says, "Mommy, I know why Mary is called the "version" Mary in that song: because there are lots of "versions" of Mary and this "version" is the Mary that had baby Jesus." So try explaining what a "virgin" is to your 5 year old daughter...
2) As our little family was in the car, we passed a car accident. Luke and I were discussing this "car accident," and before we knew it, Julia was repeatedly asking the same question over and over again..."Mommy, the car go poo-poo?" I'm thinking, "what?" and Luke gets it: oh, the "car accident." Accidents, in a little 2 year old's mind, can only mean one thing...
3) Over dinner with my parents, Julia is eating really well and asks, "Can we have that chocolate cake if we eat a good dinner?" (the cake we had eaten a few days before for my dad's birthday). I answer, "No, it's all gone. PaPa ate it all." (I'm kidding about that, of course). The look Julia turned and gave to my Dad was priceless, as was this comment: "That is not kind. You're supposed to share." Girls and their chocolate.
And finally, just a reminder that the computer lingo of today is a huge part of a toddler's vocabulary:
4) Julia says, "When you ask Uncle Kristian 'why?' he just says 'Google it.' "..... Don't we all?

I read this post to David and we both got a big laugh out of it! Your girls are too cute! : )
good laughs, my friend . . . goooood laughs!
and all I have to say about statement #1 is - - didn't her father go to school for like ten years (eeerr somethin like that?)
have HIM explain it to her!
yeah. right. We're still wondering how to tell our girls that Daddy does more than "catch babies."
This blog was very, very funny! Was Amaleah the one who wrote the note to Marlowe or did she tell you what to write? If she actually wrote it, I would like to know how you taught her to do that! I've taught 11 year olds who couldn't print that well.
