A Day in My Life

Here's a sampling of actual comments from my kids today:

"I want a lava lamp--with jellyfish in it!"

"I peed on the couch."

"But Nolan's lava lamp has jellyfish in it."

"Does God have a remote control to start the rain?"

"Peas make you fat and slow."


and...



wait for it...


"Ryland broke his lava lamp!!!"

It's all a matter of perspective

Recently we took the kids to the children's area of the Dallas Museum of Nature and Science. It's a reallly fun place, with lots of themed rooms and little activities. One room is farm themed, and has lifesize stuffed animals around the walkways. I said, "Look, a goat!" to Ryland, and his reply was, "That's not a goat, that's a WILDEBEAST!!!"

Hmm...you think maybe we've seen too many movies featuring African animals? Especially since he next called the collie a lion?

Cade and Chris were having a conversation about Easter the other night. Chris was explaining a few things that we celebrate about Jesus, and had said that Jesus went to be with his father in Heaven.

Cade: "Where is Heaven?"


Chris: "Well, it's a long way away."


Cade: "I know where Heaven is then."


Chris: Really? Where is it?"


Cade: "It's in Austin."




Crazy boys!!!
