Funny Things Kids (& Husbands) Say

Isaac: I got fixed today!
Shane: There goes our lineage.

What Isaac meant to say, of course, was that he fixed something.

I just love Shane's sense of humor!

Isaac Loses First Baby Tooth

We were just finishing supper tonight when Isaac showed us just how far he could push his loose tooth with his tongue. Shane said, "Gee, that looks like it'll come out any day... or even any time!" When Isaac pushed it again, it fell right out into his lap. We all laughed in delight and amazement. While Shane retrieved the camera, Isaac went to his room to put the tooth under his pillow. What a small but momentous occasion! I'm so glad we were all there when it happened!

We got to be in a parade!

Yesterday afternoon we rode on a float in the Summerfest Parade in the village of Oregon. The float was for the kids' preschool, Little Angels Christian Preschool. All the kids are in pajamas because the theme of the float has to do with dreams. We tossed candy to kids and handed out flyers along the route. Except for Allie having a temper tantrum at the beginning, it was fun! Halfway through the parade, she decided she wanted out of the borrowed stroller and into the float. She was so tired! After the parade, she took a good long nap.

Allie: Teletubbies and Jesus

I love Allie's imagination. This morning she picked up one of my Bibles, opened it to the middle, closed it, and said, "I'm done." As if she had read the whole thing. I got a chuckle out of that.

Then she opened it again and looked at the pictures and maps. When I asked her what it was about, she said in all seriousness, "Teletubbies and Jesus." I wish I had a camera rolling!!! It was so CUTE!!
