Found Some Funnies

We're trying to pack some today. If I already posted these, enjoy again! :)

Me: We could have a cheese crisp and a shake for dinner...

J: Or juice and a party! ... Or ice cream or Chic-fil-A!

Alisa was running across the living room the other morning, stopped, picked something off the bottom of her foot, ate it, and said, "Yummy!" Ew.

Me: We are having a special treat tonight! (Sugar free pudding with bananas)

J: I know what I need! Some white sugar will sure help me feel better!

We checked out a book from the library called "There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Boot." It is hilarious. I highly recommend it. The old woman doesn't like children. She buys a potion from a witch down the way, gives it to a bunch of children. Instead of working, the children turn into old "grouches and biddies" that are far worse than she is. It is a great story. So randomly one day Jake smiles at me and announces, "Mom, I am a biddy!"

We had Jake and Hallie go to sleep in our bed a few weeks ago, since the party wouldn't stop with Jake, Alisa, and Hallie in one room. Hallie doesn't like to sleep in the dark. They told me how concerned they were about monsters. After explaining that monsters NEVER come to our house (they are afraid of dad), I told them they could pray to feel better, and that Heavenly Father would protect them. Jake's response: Will Heavenly Father make our muscles big and strong?

Today there was some kind of drug bust right outside of our house. There was a green SUV pulled over and five cop cars behind. There was a point when they man and woman and a police officer were right outside of our front windows. So we took the kids to the back room, just in case something crazy were to happen (we do have some sketchy areas by us!). We were explaining to Jake that there were some bad guys outside and the police officers were making sure it was safe for us. Jake was obsessed, poor kid! We had a little Root Beer Float treat after the bad guys were gone, and Jake was very concerned: Do bad guys like spicy drinks (soda)? Do bad guys eat ice cream? When bad guys die, they will not live with Heavenly Father. They will live with Satan.
