When discussing which hair style to try, my youngest son said he wanted an afro and his skin dyed as well. I explain that wasn't possible so next he described a hair style I couldn't understand. Later he brought a picture of the cut he wanted. Hair on the sides and bald on top!

Saturday was one of those "rush" days - so the kids got poptarts for breakfast (I know- real nutritional!)

Anyway, Seth (3) decided in the middle of eating, that they forgot to pray, so everyone had to stop so we could pray.

Now the prayer is the little kid's prayer:
God is great, God is good
let us thank Him for this food... (and so on)

except when we got to the part about "food" Seth yells "no, no, not food - we're eating poptarts - thank Him for Poptarts!"

So we had to start the whole prayer over...

"God is great, God is good
Let us thank Him for these poptarts..."

I was burying my head in the table to keep from laughing out loud during the prayer - Seth was sooooo serious! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

My daughter was in trouble often when she was little. In our home, as I expect is the case in plenty of others, one would hear one's full name when a parent was pushed to the limits of patience. "Ceara Meredith Vaughan Heidebrecht!" she'd hear pretty often. One day, she caught her dad doing something she thought he shouldn't and warned him,
" Daddy Meredith Vaughan Heidebrecht!" He has never felt more warned, or forgotten it!


Be kinder than you need to be. Everyone is dealing with something.

We were watching the launch of the space shuttle last week (4th of July - how perfect!), and Seth, our 3 yr old goes "I want to go on a space ship!"

So my husband tells him when he gets bigger he can go on a spaceship (which would actually be my husband's dream come true) <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Seth goes, "I am bigger" because he had been to the Dr.s and they said he was getting bigger.

So I told him he had to be a grownup like Daddy to go on the space shuttle.

He thought about that for a minute and holds up his hand with his finger and thumb apart and says, "I'm a wittle, tiny grownup."

(He still can't say his L's!) <img src="/images/graemlins/heart.gif" alt="" />

I overheard a conversation between my 11 and 9 year olds. (Sam, 9, happened to be wearing biking shorts.)

Ben, who is 11 said, "What ya doin, smuggling plums?

Sam said, "No, I am revealing my inner self."

If you are always trying to be someone else how can you be yourself?
So try and be yourself more everyday that way you will never lose who you are.

I have four kids, 10, 7, 3 and 19 months. I am 7 months preg with #5. My 3 yr old DD, Jayden, decided she is having a baby too. She is going to have a girl named Cinnerella.

here is a conversation we had recently:

J: "Mom, the baby is coming out today, I have a bellyache. Her name is Cinnerella"

Me: "Oh yeah? How is the baby coming out?"

J: points to her rib cage and says "Dese magic doors open up and her gonna walk out!"

Me: "What is the baby going to eat?"

J: "Froot, duh, and boobie milk."

Then she got a thougtful look on her face and said..."I dont have big boobies though, so you have to feed the baby cuz you got big boobies"

Cute, eh?

Now Paula, the smuggling plums story is TOO MUCH! I almost spit my tea on the screen reading that!!

When my 12 year old was 2 1/2 we took her to Disney World. It was some celebration and Cinderella's castle was made into a huge cake. The Disney Channel kept showing pictures of it and my daughter would often say "ra's cabble debbit a cake". Beyond castle and cake we had no idea what she was trying to say. She was beyond frustrated with us.

When we got to Disney and strolled her down Main Street, she pointed to the castle and clear as a bell said "See. Ra's castle really did turn into a cake".

Thankfull, when daughter #2 came alone, we had daughter #1 to translate! Our own family babble fish.

Nearing the end of a 1 1/2 hour drive, Sam said, �I think my water just broke.�
My oldest son Aaron stated, �Huh, you aren�t pregnant.�
Sam replied, �Oh, what do you say when you are about to pee?�

Once I forgot to bring a diaper, for my bed-wetting son, on an overnight at my Mom�s. He was 4 years old at the time. My mother produced an adult diaper from the pack that had been used for my aged grandmother. As I was helping to secure the tabs on the diaper waistband, which reached to under his armpits. My wide-eyed son said, �What kind of baby was this?�

I recently learned that I am in the (sometimes) habit of raising my voice and becoming more insistent when my kids don�t answer me.

The other day my son brought this to my attention by sticking his finger up to my face, saying, �Don�t be rude, I am trying to hear what my brother is saying.�
oops!
