Nevaeh ~ 10/21/10

Upon seeing my new address stamp, Nevaeh excitedly asked "What's that?!"

I replied, "It's my new address stamp with the new house's address on it."

She again excitedly replied, "Oh, neat! So when people ask for your autograph you can just stamp it with that!"

I chuckled and asked, "Now why would anyone want MY autograph?"

She replied, "Because you're such a good photographer!!"

Made my day!!

Natalie ~ September 2010 ~ Six Years

At the dinner table the other evening we were discussing how wild & crazy Riley is.

Jon said "Man, when he ends up in jail I'm not bailing him out!"

I sweetly said to Riley, "Aww...Mommy will bail you out honey!"

Jon replied "Over my dead body!"

I again sweetly said to Riley, "Daddy will be dead, but Mommy will bail you out honey!"

Natalie pipes in and says "If daddy's dead, will you get a new man Mommy?!"


Apparently I am not ever to be without "a man".

Nevaeh - September 2010 ~ Six Years

Nevaeh saw an Indian man doing a commercial on television the other day. He had beautiful long silky hair. She replied "Oh, wow! That man has long hair!" I replied yes, many true Indians have long hair, men & women both! She pondered this and said "What?! Indians speak English (the commercial)?!!! I thought they only went Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo!" (insert Indian pow-wow sound here)

Note to self: teach the girls about different cultures.

Natalie - August 2010 ~ Six Years

During a conversation at the dinner table about life & death, I asked the girls if they knew where people went when they died. They said Heaven. I asked where they go if they don't go to Heaven.

Natalie leaned over to her sister and with a very poigniant attitude replied "Well, they don't go to Disneyland!!"

Point taken.

Nevaeh - 9/9/10 ~ Six Years

As we were driving home from picking the girls up from school today (1st grade) I was listening to them busily tell me all about their days. There was a pause in the conversation, so I asked Nevaeh, "What else did you do today?" to which she replied "Well, I didn't necessarily do this today, but I finished it today!"

Six going on 16.....
