The Hunky Monkey and I got a good laugh at dinner tonight.

Blessing #3 was trying to ask for some sauerkraut on his hot dog.
Except he innocently asked for "some of that sour crap."

Oh, was it funny!

The kids have been watching a Clifford the Big Red Dog video we borrowed from the library. Obviously having the DVD has meant a more concentrated exposure to the adventures of those Birdwell Island dogs.

And all the things they say.

Blessing #4 was practicing her AWANA verse the other day. I think it was Joshua 1:9 where it says: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous, for the LORD your God is with you.”

I asked her to recite it for me. And she starts, “Have I ever steered you wrong? Be strong and courageous…”

Too much Cleo, I guess. :)

Pinnocchio has sticky pockets

I overhear Blessing #6 crying while playing with B#5:

Hey, what's going on?

B#5:

*crosses arms*

I don't know.
She just keeps getting hurt.

*scrunches face and shrugs shoulders*

I just close my eyes,
and I don't touch her.

*shakes head*

Or anything.

*pauses*

And don't look in my pocket, Mom.
There's nothing in there.
I don't have any candy in my pocket,
so you don't need to look in it.
