Kids Say the Funniest Things....

So we've been hearing some interesting things at our house lately. The kids have become pretty chatty and usually have no problem sharing their feelings or what they want. Here are just a few things that have come out of the mouths of our babes....

Emma-"Daddy, don't talk like that!"-no Daddy didn't say anything bad, but Emma was under the impression that he was being ugly. He was just talking to her brother about being good.

Henry-"I don't want to do anything!"-he's woken up the past few days and been a little on the grumpy side. So when we've asked what he wanted to do that has been his answer accompanied with a great big scowl.

Emma and Henry-"want to go to the animal store."-we went out the other weekend and Daddy wouldn't tell us where we were going. He even took a different route to get there, but the kids figured it out somehow. We've taken the kids to the RainForest Cafe at Grapevine Mills Mall a few times and they LOVE it!!! This time we sat in the booth right below the gorillas! And when the rainstorm came Henry said, "don't be scared rillas, it's ok." And besides lunch we walked out with a bag full of goodies-books and toys.

Emma-"Can God give me a different brother?"-she said this yesterday and I almost fell over laughing. She and Henry had been going back in forth with either playing nicely together or fighting. This happened after one of the fights. She insisted on a new brother or sister. Guess what Mommy said to that one? NO!!! No more babies:) Later out of the blue she was all lovie dovie with Henry and hugged him and told him she loved him.

Henry and Emma-"Yeeeeeesssssss......you waaaannnt to."-I hear this a lot through out the day, every day. It's one of the many things we are working on. You(H&E) can't always depend on Mom to do things for you even when you say "please." And to tell the truth, I don't always want to!
