I am committed to documenting those special and funny things that my children say......before I forget here is the latest.
Abby - Today we attended Brynn's short singing program at school. It was an early day for her so I decided since I was out of the house at 8:10 AM with everyone dressed and ready (a miracle!) I would take the chance to run a couple of errands with just two littles. On the way to Target this is the conversation between Abby and me.
Abby: Mom, am I just going to be thwee forebber?
Me: No, next week you will be four years old!
Abby: After I turn four I don't want to be any more numbers.
Me: Why? (I thought she would give her usual answer, "I want to live with you and dad forebber!" Today she had a new reason.......)
Abby: Because when you get older, you have to shabe and I don't want blood all ober my legs. (I shave every day, and hurry so fast that there is often blood involved.)

Today after dance..........
Me: Abby, how was dance today?
Abby: It was great!
Me: I'm so glad!
Abby: I cried a little bit though.
Me: Why were you crying?
Abby: Because I just love it so much!

We flew Mom down on Monday night to watch the kids while we went to the NAHC Christmas Party in Laguna Beach (I'll write more about this later). Mom related the following story. When she took Brynn to school on Tuesday, Brynn turned to her and said in a somewhat teary tone, "Grandma, will you kiss the middle of my hand? My mom kisses my hand everyday and then I put it on my cheek when I miss her at school and I can think about her and remember that she loves me." Mom kissed her hand and sent her into the classroom.
On the first day of school we read the book, "The Kissing Hand," I've kissed her hand every day since. It's fun to realize that she treasures those little things as much as I do. Sweet, sweet moments.

What memorable moments! You could write a book about Abby's funny comments. She is hilarious. We love The Kissing Hand too. That's so sweet that she looks forward to that kiss on her hand.
I just love the funny and sweet things kids say.
So cute! Erick's kindergarten teacher read all the kids The Kissing Hand on their first day of school. Previously all the moms had been in an traced their own hand and decorated it with a little message for their kids as a surprise for them to go with the book. I thought it was a really cute idea.
ps. I broke down and bought Christmas stockings this year - you got me thinking about it, thanks!
So glad you are writing these things down because 1) you will forget bits and piece of what they said even after a few months and 2) you just can't make this stuff up! What cute kids you have!
What darling stories! I love the kissing hand story! So sweet!
