Random Thoughts Fall 2012

I always like to write down the random things the kids say, but I forget!

During prayers --

Maeve asked where God lives and I said everywhere, especially in our hearts and I pointed to her heart.  She giggled and asked if Jesus lived in her belly and I said "Of course!"  She the proceeded to ask if she could have a pair of scissors.  I asked why and she said she would like to cut her belly open to get Jesus out!

Maeve is always having babies and they are all named Bella.

One afternoon Maeve was playing quietly while I took a shower and when I came out I sat down with her.  She told me that her bedroom was church and her baby was in church.  I asked why she wasn't with her baby in church and she said that she left her there so she could go shoe shopping.  She opened her bag and pulled out four pair of my high heels that she had pilfered from my closet.  She said her baby was fine in church while she shopped.  (Does she think this is what we do while she is in nursery?!)

I asked Noah if he had a student teacher this year and he said "Yes.  Her name is Miss N. and she is a foreigner. "  I asked more about what this meant and he said she came from another continent or an island.  He couldn't remember where.  I continued to ask questions to see if maybe he had an exchange student there.  I asked if she spoke English and he said yes, but Mrs. Morris (his teacher) just taught her before school today.  At Parent Teacher night Miss N. introduced herself fine and was a senior at West Chester.  Who knows where that came from!!!!
