I had to post a couple of cute things that the kids have said lately. I don't want to forget them and since I am not a journal writer I figure that this is my best bet.
A couple of weeks ago, Kiley invited two of her friends over to play after school. She spent the morning building a tent in her room that they could play in. She told me that she was going to let Kade play in it, even if her friends didn't want him to. We picked both friends up and they walked with us to school. I was a little bit ahead of them, pushing Kade and Olivia in the stroller when I heard this:
Kiley: "I built a tent in my room that we can play in after school."
Friend: "But not Kade, huh."
Kiley: "Kade can play too. We don't leave anyone out. It's in the scripture s, well (laughs a little)okay maybe it's not in the scriptures but Jesus never left anyone out."
Friend: "oh, okay."
I was proud, even though I had to chuckle a bit. Cute!
Kade loves to watch Super Why! Lately when he is doing things that he's not suppose to and I ask him to stop, he says, "I can't. It's in my story. I have to throw wet toys out of the tub (or whatever it is that I want him to not do)." It is hard to be mad at him after he says that. :)
Olivia has learned to say MOM. She stands in the hall and yells, "Mom!" and then smiles when I say, "What?" She understands almost everything now and nods or shakes her head to everything we ask her. Isn't communication great?!

That's so cute. You know you're doing something right when your kids are talking about Jesus and the scriptures to their friends.
