Latest Sayings & Laughs

One morning, I made hard boiled eggs for breakfast, which are not Isaac's favorite thing to eat.  (He reminds me of this every single time.)  He tolerates the hard boiled egg white, but not the yolk.

Mom:  "You need to eat the yolk, because that's where the protein is.  The protein gives you your strength."

Isaac: "Oh, I get my strength from God."

Isaac: "Emma, what do you want to be when you grow up?"

Emma: "I don't know, Isaac."

Isaac:  "A doctor?!  Yes, you should be a doctor."

Mommy:  "Isaac, did you like the dinner I made you?"

Isaac:  "No, but I liked the dessert.  And, it's all gone.  There's none left for you."

Our church had an evening at the Keller Pointe (a local waterpark) for everyone who volunteers.  We had told Isaac that there was a lazy river there.  When we were driving to the Keller Pointe, Isaac kept saying, "I can't wait to go in the lazy susan!"

Isaac and I were reading a book about Noah's Ark.  At the end of the book, there was an illustration showing all the devastation on the earth as the flood waters receded.  Isaac pointed at a large pile of broken wood in the picture and said, "Those are the claim shanties from the people who died in the

flood."  (Isaac and Dave are reading the last book in the Little House on the Prairie series; and, Laura 

and her husband just moved to their own claim shanty.)

After Emma's first day back in her class at Bible Study Fellowship this fall, I asked Emma what she learned.  She said, "My teacher pray with me."  

Yesterday she patted my Bible and said, "Jesus to us!"  (I think she was trying to say the Bible is Jesus' word to us.)

Isaac and Dave were wrestling, and Emma wanted to be included.  Dave picked her up and whirled 

her around in the air.  When he set her back on the ground, she tried to stand up but was too dizzy.  "Daddy, the room is shaking!" she said.  Don't worry--she was back in the action 30 seconds later.  Emma is tough!

I changed Emma's diaper after her nap, and then she put on her underwear.  Isaac said, "They look 

like boxer briefs!"  (I think this due to the fact that Emma is so tiny that her underwear hang off her.)

Isaac's new term for Kleenex: "sneeze-ex"
