Four-Year-Old Speak

Natalie continues to crack us up with the sweet and funny things she says. Here are a few recent ones:

Natalie: "Mommy, I'm going to make up my own verse. Micah 40:5. The Lord God made, holy and wise, some people were sinners, and they couldn't go to heaven." She has since added this part "Until they were not sinners and asked Jesus to be their Savior"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

N: "Today is Mofvers Day" (Hands me a bunch of lilacs she picked at grandma's)

Me: Well, it's not really Mother's Day, but we can celebrate it if you want. What is Mother's Day?

N: It's a day we give our mofvers things.

Me: Why?

N: To say "thank you" for loving us and taking care of us. I love you Mommy!

Me: (melting heart, couldn't say anything!)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

N: This horse is old. See it's face looks old. It's the grandma horse.

Tim: Are all grandmas old?

N: Yes, but not Grandma Jan and Grandma Harms.

We were watching Cinderella III that we got from the library. She did really well, only asking a few questions through it. The questions were appropriate too. She seemed to catch the character lesson. At the end when the Prince and Cinderella were about to kiss, she got all giggly and said, "They're gonna kiss. It's the best part!" Such a girly girl!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a funny from Megan. Last night we were at some friends' house and the kids were all playing in another room. Megan came out to me patting her head, which she usually does when she hits her head on something. I was dishing out the sympathy and hugs, when my friend's husband came into the room laughing. "She just whacked everyone on the head with that golf club!" Apparently Megan is going to tattle on herself! She whacked all her friends with a toy stick then came out to tell me.

I love Natalie's logic. I am amazed at her perception of things.

I love you

My Story Begins

I am participating in a really fun project that is the brainchild of my friend Janna, who regularly blogs at The Adventure of Motherhood . Her project, entitled Mommy's Piggy Tales , encourages moms to blog about their childhood in 15 weeks. Here is the button if you want to learn more or consider joining. My dad, my mom, and me. My daughter, N, has that quilt now. Every year for Christmas my brother and I received our very own holiday ornament. Starting with the “Baby’s First Christmas” ornament, these ornaments usually reflected something we accomplished or did during the soon-to-be-past year. For example, the year I got my driver’s license, my ornament was Daffy Duck in a shiny new car. Every year we enjoyed putting “our” ornaments on the tree. It was a wonderful time to reflect back over our lives and the memories we had made. Sometimes we asked the reason behind the ornament, and learned a little more about our histories. When I married, I got a box with my ornaments in it to ...

Preschool: Life Changing Years

I have been thinking since last week about what to write when it comes to preschool. I am participating in a fun project put on by my friend Janna at Mommy's Piggy Tales. Check it out! There are so many options. I could write about my imaginary friend, Polk-a-Roo, who I was actually a little afraid of. I could write about losing my favorite My-Little-Pony, Firefly, in the sandbox when some mean boys buried it at preschool. I could write about my only child, only grandchild years before my brother came along. I could write about my first “best friend,” the girl across the street (Klaire), who I sobbed over when it was time to move away. I could write about all of those things, but the truth is my preschool years are some of the most important of my life. See, my parents wanted me to be a “good person.” To reach that goal, they started going to church. Not long after they started attending church, something happened that would change the course of my life forever. My parents, throug...

Christmas Miracle

Natalie was hamming it up for Tim the other night. Well, a lot has been going on in the past two months. About a month or so after the miscarriage, I was noticing something wasn't quite as it should be. I took a pregnancy test, and it came back positive. That was strange to me, because we were trying to prevent that as requested by the doctor. They called me in for blood work, and everything was indicating that I was pregnant. I was quite confused, as you can probably imagine. Two weeks ago we went in to have an ultrasound. That was eight weeks after the miscarriage. In that ultrasound they found what appeared to be a baby developing at 5 weeks gestation. We were quite perplexed, of course, because in our minds it should be about 8 weeks. The doctor asked us to come back today because at 7 weeks they should be able to see a heartbeat. The doctor said there was a good chance that there were just leftovers in there because of the earlier miscarriage, but that my numbers (hormone leve...
