It's been a while since I shared some of the off the wall things my kiddos say, so I thought what better time to share than now- when a couple of them are driving me batty. It helps to acknowledge the things that make me smile on the days when they are helping my hairs turn gray! =D

"Mom, did they have e-mail back when they wrote the Bible?" Gabi asked.
I chuckled. "No not quite."
"Then why does part of the prayer say Lead us not into temptation and deliver us some e-mail?"

It's been really warm here lately, so the kids have been playing outside a lot. Thank the heavens! Well one day the kids were playing outside and Jalynn - my little nature lover- brought me a caterpillar. she looked sad.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"The caterpillar is dead." she answered.
"Are you sure?" I asked. "Maybe it's just sleeping or playing dead so you'll put it down."
"No, I'm sure. I pissed in it's ear."
My eyes widened and I choked on the potato chip I was eating. "You what?!"
"I went up to its ear and Pssst in it. It didn't move so I'm pretty sure it's dead."

My boys are addicted to video games. The other day Alex was searching for a game. He looked and looked and couldn't find it, apparently, so he came up and asked me..."Have you seen Honky Kong." I don't know why this tickled me so much but it did.

A couple of weeks ago we decided to take the kids out for dinner and were taking a poll on what people wanted to eat. Gabi chimed in with, "Can we please go to Oliver's Garden?!"
---------------
Greenlee got a couple new pair of really cute flip flops from Old Navy. They are adoreable, however, I noticed that when she wears them she tends to walk on her heels. Apparently Jalynn noticed this too and pointed out to everyone that she was walking on her "tippy heels".
---------------
Greenlee has been learning words right and left. Ofcourse she only uses them when she sees fit, but for the most part she uses them in the proper context which makes it even more adoreable. However, her newest thing is to say her version of 'Don't' she doesn't quite get it yet and leaves out the D. But it's the cutest thing when she doesn't want to do something and she looks at you and shakes her head and says,...'Noooo n't'
---------------
I bought a box of animal crackers the other day for the kids. Jalynn proceeded to bring hers home and dump them out on the table. "What are you doing?" I asked.
"The directions say not to eat them if the seal is broken. Wanna help me find the seal?"
---------------
I asked my kids the other day what love means,...these are some of their answers.
* Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt and then he wears it everyday
* Love is when Mommy gives Bobby the biggest piece of dessert
*"God could have said magic words to make the nails fall off the cross,but.............. He didn't. That's love."
*Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.
*You love us Mommy, because even when we're sick you clean up our puke and wipe it off the corners of our mouths. You must love Greenlee a lot because you are always putting your hand in her poopy diaper.
